Select Artifacts, and then select Connect to feed.
Select twine from the left navigation area. If this is your first time using Azure Artifacts with twine, make sure to install the prerequisites by selecting Get the tools and following the provided steps.
Add a pypirc file to your home directory and paste the provided snippet into it. Your file should look similar to the following snippet. If you already have a pypirc that contains credentials for the public PyPI index, we recommend removing the [pypi] section to avoid accidentally publishing private packages to PyPI.
[distutils] Index-servers = FEED_NAME [FEED_NAME] Repository = https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/ORGANIZATION_NAME/PROJECT_NAME/_packaging/FEED_NAME/pypi/upload/
Run the following command in your project directory to create source and wheel distributions.
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
Run the following command to publish your package. Use the
-r REPOSITORY_NAME
flag to ensure that your private packages are not accidentally published to PyPI.twine upload -r REPOSITORY_NAME dist/*
Important
You must have twine 1.13.0 or higher to use artifacts-keyring. See Usage requirements for more details.
