Why is the below happening when I try to register my package with the test site? It registers with the regular site just fine :/
This is what happens at my command line when I attempt to register with the pypi test site:
PS C:\Users\Dave\Desktop\distributing\hellodmt2Distribution> python setup.py register -r https://testpypi.python.org
i
running register
running egg_info
writing hellodmt2.egg-info\PKG-INFO
writing top-level names to hellodmt2.egg-info\top_level.txt
writing dependency_links to hellodmt2.egg-info\dependency_links.txt
reading manifest file 'hellodmt2.egg-info\SOURCES.txt'

My setup.py:
#!/usr/bin/env
try:
from setuptools import setup
except importError:
from distutils.core import setup
setup(name = "hellodmt2",
description = "a source distribution test",
version = "0.1",
author = "David",
author_email = "[email protected]",
py_modules = ["hellodmt2"],
url = "https://github.com/dmt257/hellodmt2",
download_url = "https://github.com/dmt257/hellodmt2/archive/0.1.zip",
keywords = ["testing"],
)
This is my pypirc:
[distutils]
index-servers=
pypi
pypitest
[pypitest]
repository = https://testpypi.python.org/pypi
username = dmt257
password = mypasswordhere
[pypi]
repository = https://pypi.python.org/pypi
username = dmt257
password = mypasswordhere
The file should be called, simply, .pypirc, not pypi.pypirc. This a Linux-style filename commonly used for configuration files. The leading dot means that it won't be shown in a normal directory listing.
And from what I have read, the Windows equivalent of the Linux $Home directory (~) is C\Users\<logged-in-user>, so C\Users\Dave, in your case. Adding the location to your PATH won't help; this variable is only to allow Windows to find executables.
The documentation isn't clear on where this file should go in a Windows environment, there is an old bug that mentions this file not being found in Windows because of the lack of a HOME envorinment variable. It's been 'fixed' but it's still not clear where the file should go, other than ~/.pypirc.
I'd try renaming your file, first. If you still have issues, try moving it to your 'home' directory. Note that the Windows GUI won't let you rename a file with only an extension, so you'll have to do it from a command window:
rename pypi.pypirc .pypirc
