Published by twine python package does not appear in repository

I'm trying to publish my python package to private repository. I followed the official guide https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/packaging-projects/ and everything seemed to be good. Here's terminal output:

(venv) C:\Users\xxx\PycharmProjects\my_package>twine upload --config-file .pypirc -r pypi dist/*
Uploading distributions to http://xxx/pypi/simple/
Enter your password:
Uploading my_package-0.1-py3-none-any.whl
100%|████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 8.03k/8.03k [00:01<00:00, 4.83kB/s]
Uploading my-package-0.1.tar.gz
100%|████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 7.40k/7.40k [00:00<00:00, 10.3kB/s]

But after publishing I can't see my package in repository neither by opening url in browser nor I can install it by pip.

I noticed that .whl comes with an underscore in name while .tar.gz comes with a dash. May it be be the issue? How can I find out what is wrong?

Sure does not matter your package uploaded to private or public repository. You can even do not upload it to Git to publish it.

You can do that in 4 basic steps

  • Create a python package
  • Write setup.py
  • Build the package
  • Publish to PyPI via twine

Create a python package

At following example the demoverflow folder contains __init__.py which is making demoverflow a python package.

└── demoverflow
    ├── demo.py
    └── __init__.py
# demo.py

class Demo:
    ...

import Demo at __init__.py to be able to import it from demoverflow (like: from demoverflow import Demo)

# __init__.py

from demo import Demo

Write setup.py

from setuptools import setup, find_packages

setup(
    name="demoverflow",
    version="0.0.1",
    author="Firstname Lastname",
    author_email="<demoverflow@support.com>",
    description="My demo package",
    packages=find_packages(),
    install_requires=[],
    keywords=['python'],
    classifiers=[
        "Development Status :: 1 - Planning",
        "Intended Audience :: Developers",
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3",
        "Operating System :: Unix",
        "Operating System :: MacOS :: MacOS X",
        "Operating System :: Microsoft :: Windows",
    ]
)

NOTE: Before build the package you should have the following file structure

├── demoverflow
│   ├── demo.py
│   └── __init__.py
└── setup.py

So setup.py and your package should be a neighbours

Build the package

If you already installed setuptools then can run following command to generate dist folder

python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel

Publish to PyPI

This command will require username and password of your PyPI account

twine upload dist/*
