To use the action add the following step to your workflow file (e.g.
|
|
||||||
`.github/workflows/main.yml`)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```yml
|
|
||||||
- name: Publish a Python distribution to PyPI
|
|
||||||
uses: pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish@release/v1
|
|
||||||
with:
|
|
||||||
password: ${{ secrets.PYPI_API_TOKEN }}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

||||||

||||||

|
|
||||||
from sudden and unpleasant surprises.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A common use case is to upload packages only on a tagged commit, to do so add a
|
|
||||||
filter to the step:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```yml
|
|
||||||
if: github.event_name == 'push' && startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags')
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So the full step would look like:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```yml
|
|
||||||
- name: Publish package
|
|
||||||
if: github.event_name == 'push' && startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags')
|
|
||||||
uses: pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish@release/v1
|
|
||||||
with:
|
|
||||||
password: ${{ secrets.PYPI_API_TOKEN }}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The example above uses the new [API token][PyPI API token] feature of
|
|
||||||
PyPI, which is recommended to restrict the access the action has.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The secret used in `${{ secrets.PYPI_API_TOKEN }}` needs to be created on the
|
|
||||||
settings page of your project on GitHub. See [Creating & using secrets].

In the past, when publishing to PyPI, the most secure way of the access scoping
|
||||||
|
for automatic publishing was to use the [API tokens][PyPI API token] feature of
|
||||||
|
PyPI. One would make it project-scoped and save as an environment-bound secret
|
||||||
|
in their GitHub repository settings, naming it `${{ secrets.PYPI_API_TOKEN }}`,
|
||||||
|
for example. See [Creating & using secrets]. This is no longer encouraged when
|
||||||
|
publishing to PyPI or TestPyPI, in favor of [trusted publishing].
