CI/CD Setup
Setting up PyPI Publishing (One-time setup)
-
Create a PyPI API token:
- Go to https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/
- Create a new project-scoped token for "sparkles"
- Copy the token (starts with
pypi-)
-
Add token to GitHub Secrets:
- Go to your GitHub repository → Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions
- Click "New repository secret"
- Name:
PYPI_API_TOKEN - Value: Paste your PyPI token
- Click "Add secret"
How to Release a New Version (Git-Ops Style)
Just push a tag with the bump type you want:
# For a patch release (0.2.0 → 0.2.1)
git tag release-patch
git push origin release-patch
# For a minor release (0.2.0 → 0.3.0)
git tag release-minor
git push origin release-minor
# For a major release (0.2.0 → 1.0.0)
git tag release-major
git push origin release-major
What happens automatically:
- GitHub Actions detects the
release-*tag - Bumps the version in code and commits it
- Creates a proper version tag (e.g.,
v0.2.1) - Builds the package
- Creates a GitHub Release with release notes
- Publishes to PyPI
That's it! No manual builds, version edits, or uploads needed.

A note on package security
PyPI is a repository for distributing packages, not a service for auditing them. While third-party security researchers and our staff do their best to detect and remove malicious packages, PyPI cannot guarantee the quality, security or suitability of any given package.
