pypi-profile 0.2.0

The missing PyPI(tm) profile page — link your profile with signatures. Not associated with PSF.

pypi-profile

Pypi lacks a profile or a way to tie your identity to anything outside of pypi, other than a build server, via trusted publishing.

pypi-profile is a tool for uses a pypi_profile.toml file to track signatures that can be verified at other websites.

It supports other use cases, such as resume display, contact info, package lists, and successor information.

What the package does

pypi-profile currently ships:

• GUI for quick start and feature discovery.
• a CLI for init, validate, inspect, serve, dump, doctor, fetch, keygen, sign, verify, update-proofs, build, find-profiles, gui, and key management (key-info, key-list, key-rotate, key-recover, key-export, key-import)
• a TOML-first profile format for identity, packages, projects, hiring, contact, succession, and verification data
• a live website for validating signatures
• a static website for validating signatures within the constraints of javascript and CORS.

Install

Recommended: pipx

pipx install pypi-profile

Alternative: pip

pip install pypi-profile

pipx install "pypi-profile[all]"

Or with pip:

pip install "pypi-profile[all]"

From source

This repository is a uv workspace. Run commands from the repo root:

git clone https://github.com/matthewdeanmartin/matthewdeanmartin_pypi.git
cd matthewdeanmartin_pypi
uv sync --all-extras
uv run pypi-profile --help

Use the CLI entry point pypi-profile, not python -m pypi_profile.

Usage

The shortest path from zero to a local profile site is:

pypi-profile init --username your-pypi-name
pypi-profile inspect pypi_profile.toml
pypi-profile serve pypi_profile.toml

That gives you a starter TOML file and serves the profile locally at http://127.0.0.1:8000.

Useful follow-up commands:

pypi-profile dump pypi_profile.toml
pypi-profile doctor

If you already have source data, you can bootstrap from it:

pypi-profile init --from-json-resume resume.json --output pypi_profile.toml
pypi-profile init --username your-pypi-name --fetch

Security notes

• Proof-of-control signing is built around a local secret key. Keep that key out of version control.
• serve --allow-code is opt-in. Do not enable it for untrusted code.
• Verification proves account co-control, not legal identity or the truth of every profile claim.
