Deployment to pypi?

[b3ross]

Sorry for the possibly stupid question, but is there a supported workflow in pipenv for deploying a package to a pypi repository? I'm surprised I couldn't find any documentation on this but perhaps I'm missing something. This is a typical workflow in other package managers (maven, yarn, etc...). What's the correct way to do this?

Found the way to do things here: https://realpython.com/pipenv-guide/#yes-i-need-to-distribute-my-code-as-a-package

(That makes me sad that I have to use setup.py files)

Would be great if there was an opinionated pipenv deploy command that deployed things to a package repo.

I usually does

pipenv run python setup.py sdist bdist bdist_wheel
pipenv run twine upload dist/*

@gsemet the whole point is that I want to avoid having a setup.py file... but thanks.

sadly you cannot skip this part. You can look at pyproject.toml and alike. I personnally use PBR. See this ticket #1851

I feel this should be reopened as poetry has a mechanism to deploy and seems to be the only real missing feature of pipenv in my eyes

Pipenv and Pipfile are never to define the dependencies of a library, it can't play the role of setup.py
