using python-poetry to publish to test.pypi.org
Question:
I have been investigating the use of Poetry to publish Python projects. I wanted to test the publishing process using a trivial project similar to the Python Packaging Authority tutorial. Since this is a trivial project, I want to publish it to the test instance of pypi rather than the real instance. Test.pypi requires a token to publish, but I can’t figure out how to make Poetry use my test pypi token. All the documentation I can find uses HTTP basic authentication for test-pypi which no longer works.
I added the repository using this command:
poetry config.repositories.test-pypi https://test.pypi.org
I have tried creating tokens using both the following commands:
poetry config pypi-token.test-pypi my-token
poetry config test-pypi-token.test-pypi my-token
I don’t find a good explanation of the syntax for adding tokens in the poetry documentation, so any help will be appreciated.
Answers:
I’ve successfully used tokens and poetry to upload to PyPI and TestPyPI. I believe you just need to change the TestPyPI URL you are configuring by appending /legacy/:
poetry config repositories.test-pypi https://test.pypi.org/legacy/
You can then create your token as you were doing previously:
poetry config pypi-token.test-pypi <your-token>
https://test.pypi.org/legacy/ is the API endpoint for uploading packages. It’s a bit hidden in the documentation but it is mentioned here that that is the URL you should use. Also note that the name succeeding the period in repositories. and pypi-token. is what needs to match which is why we have specified: repositories.test-pypi and pypi-token.test-pypi
One time setup ( per host / environment)
PYPI test
-
add repository to poetry config
poetry config repositories.test-pypi https://test.pypi.org/legacy/
-
get token from https://test.pypi.org/manage/account/token/
-
store token using poetry config pypi-token.test-pypi pypi-YYYYYYYY
Note: ‘test-pypi’ is the name of the repository
PYPI Production
- get token from https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/
- store token using
poetry config pypi-token.pypi pypi-XXXXXXXX
Each time you need to publish
Bump version
poetry version prerelease orpoetry version patch
Poetry Publish
To TestPyPi
poetry publish -r test-pypi
To PyPi
poetry publish
