Manual release

Python package

This extension can be distributed as Python packages. All of the Python packaging instructions are in the pyproject.toml file to wrap your extension in a Python package. Before generating a package, you first need to install some tools:

pip install build twine hatch

Bump the version using hatch. By default this will create a tag. See the docs on hatch-nodejs-version for details.

hatch version <new-version>

Make sure to clean up all the development files before building the package:

jlpm clean:all

You could also clean up the local git repository:

git clean -dfX

To create a Python source package (.tar.gz) and the binary package (.whl) in the dist/ directory, do:

python -m build

python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel is deprecated and will not work for this package.

Then to upload the package to PyPI, do:

twine upload dist/*

NPM package

To publish the frontend part of the extension as a NPM package, do:

npm login
npm publish --access public
