Switch the default to uploading using Warehouse

[dstufft]

This should be a better experience for people, might want to wait on merging this though until it gets some more people using it optionally.

[annaraven]

Is PyPI being replaced by Warehouse (new name and site and everything?) Or is Warehouse going to be the new internals for PyPI and users won't care?

[dstufft]

Warehouse is the name of the software for what will power PyPI 2.0, the site name is still going to be "PyPI" (unless Brett Cannon or someone else decides to push for a rename). It will use a new URL though, instead of pypi.python.org it will just be pypi.io (but there will be redirects where possible).

[dstufft]

Oh, and as you might have guessed from this PR, uploading to the new code base uses a dedicated domain, upload.pypi.io, so that we can bypass the CDN for uploading.

[annaraven]

So what does this mean for the pypi section in ~/.pypirc?

[dstufft]

This PR will make twine default to Warehouse if that pypi section does not have an explicit repository: key. A future PR to Python will do the same there. People who have an explicit repository: section will need to update that themselves.

Of course, people can opt into this today by adding an explicit repository: section (see https://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2016-June/029083.html).

[annaraven]

So they can start using warehouse now by adding the following to their .pypirc file and calling with -r warehouse ? Will the "/legacy/" part of the url go away in the future?

[warehouse]
repository:https://upload.pypi.io/legacy/
username:
password:

[dstufft]

Yes that can start using it now by doing that, and no it won't go away-- the /legacy/ refers to the fact it's using the legacy upload API (versus the new one I plan on writing at some point).

[annaraven]

and will it use the same username and password as their current pypi?

[annaraven]

also, is there a warehouse version of "testpypi"?

[dstufft]

Yes, Warehouse and Legacy PyPI share a database-- so they're quite literally just two different views over the same data.

• pypi.io is the same as pypi.python.org.
• test.pypi.io is the same as testpypi.python.org.

Thank you again @dstufft and @annaraven for pulling that information out of Donald. =D

[annaraven]

You're quite welcome. I'm good at asking stupid questions. ;-)
