I have created a python module, i2cdev.
When I try to install it through pip, I get that it cannot find it:
$ pip3 search "i2cdev" # finds it fine i2cdev - Simple I2C Library for linux $ pip3 install i2cdev Collecting i2cdev Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement i2cdev No distributions at all found for i2cdev What is going on?
wow, I'm an idiot. Apparently you have to use setup.py sdist upload to actually upload the code onto python. I thought just registering it was enough.
You have to setup download link for the tarball/zip file which is uploaded.You can check it by
http://pypi.python.org/simple/<package name> Because pip searches in this above url.If There is no download links, You have to add download_link as metadata.That is something like
in setup.py
setup(..., download_url = 'http://pypi/path/to/package.tar.gz', ) I found out, your's is
https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/i/i2cdev/i2cdev-1.2.4.tar.gz
