  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • pyunifiprotect

  • Also, MANIFEST.in is not required. There is no such file in this project of mine. It is fully handled by the packing pipeline.

  • build

    A simple, correct Python build frontend (by pypa)

  • RE the dislike of a "third-party tool", what do you mean by this? All the major tools for packaging in Python are under the PyPA, e.g. - twine - build - hatch

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • gh-action-pypi-publish

    The blessed :octocat: GitHub Action, for publishing your :package: distribution files to PyPI: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/pypi-publish

  • Yeah, you're uploading to PyPi in your pipeline, great. The custom github action still uses twine because the stdlib falls short on BASIC security. https://github.com/pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish/blob/unstable/v1/twine-upload.sh

  • awesome-pyproject

    An Awesome List of projects using the pyproject.toml Python configuration file.

  • most important projects support pyproject.toml: https://github.com/carlosperate/awesome-pyproject

  • Pip throws a warning when running as root, and users demanded a way to turn it off: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/10556

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
