Summary

releasecmd is a release subcommand for setup.py (setuptools.setup). The subcommand creates a git tag and pushes and uploads packages to PyPI.

The subcommand class (releasecmd.ReleaseCommand) is implemented as a subclass of setuptools.Command class. The release subcommand performs the following tasks:

  1. Detect the package version
    1. If specified with the --version option, use that version

    2. Retrieve the package version from an installed package if the --use-installed-version option is specified

    3. Find a file that defines the package version (__version__ variable)

  2. Creates a git tag using the package version information
    • Optionally signs the git tag with GPG if the --sign option is specified

  3. Pushes the git tag

  4. Upload package files to PyPI using twine.
