Description
Learn the current method for creating Python packages.
Packaging Python-based applications has evolved over time. Up until Python 3.12 the standard library included a packaging library called distutils. The distutils package is being deprecated in favor of third-party options such as build and setuptools. This lab explores Python packaging through hands-on learning.
Learning Objectives:
- Creating source and distribution packages
- The pyproject.toml file.
- The third-party modules:
buildsetuptools
Prerequisites:
- Proficient with:
- The Python runtime
- The Python language syntax
- The package installer for Python (pip)
