Distutils commands to upload files to several servers
Project description
What is collective.dist ?
I have added in Python 2.6 a new feature to allow people to deal with several PyPlike servers in .pypirc.
Basically you can use register and upload commands on any server registered in .pypirc, which changed a bit.
But Plone and Zope runs on Python 2.4.
So this package adds two new commands so you can use what will be available in the core in 2.6:
mupload: command that allows uploading the package to several servers
mregister: command that allow registering to several servers
How to use collective.dist ?
mregister and mupload are replacing register and upload command and work with an extended version of the .pypirc file.
In order to work with it, change your .pypirc file this way:
[distutils] index-servers = pypi [pypi] username:user password:password
Where user and password are your PyPI users.
You can then start to use the commands, instead of the usual register and upload calls.
A typical call to upload your file would be:
$ python setup.py mregister sdist bdist_egg mupload
To deal with several PyPI-like servers, you can add them in your .pypirc file:
[distutils] index-servers = pypi another [pypi] username:user password:password [another] repository:http://another.pypi.server username:user2 password:password2
Then work with it, with the -r option:
$ python setup.py mregister sdist bdist_egg mupload -r http://another.pypi.server
You can even use the section name instead of the url:
$ python setup.py mregister sdist bdist_egg mupload -r another
And use an alias to make the code simpler:
$ python setup.py alias to_another mregister sdist bdist_egg mupload -r another # creates the alias $ python setup.py to_another # run the whole sequence
Another usage is to deal with several profiles on PyPI:
[distutils] index-servers = pypi pypi-personal [pypi] username:user password:password [pypi-personal] username:user2 password:password2
