twine: Upload to PyPI.
$ twine upload dist/*
try on your machine
The command "twine upload dist/*" is used to upload distribution packages or files to the Python Package Index (PyPI) using the "twine" tool.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "twine": It refers to the name of the command-line tool "twine" which is commonly used for publishing Python packages.
- "upload": It is one of the subcommands of "twine" used for uploading packages to PyPI.
- "dist/": This specifies the location of the distribution packages or files to be uploaded. The asterisk () is a wildcard character meaning all files in the "dist" directory will be included.
So, when you run the command "twine upload dist/*", the "twine" command will upload all the distribution packages or files found within the "dist" directory to PyPI. It's commonly used as a final step after you have built or compiled your Python package, creating the distribution files that are ready for distribution and installation by others via PyPI.
