Pushing to pypi

Instructions

1. Make setup.py in your project

   from setuptools import setup
   
   setup(name='project',
         version='1.0',
         description='thing do-er',
         author='Your Name',
         url='http://path.to.website',
         py_modules=[''],
         classifiers=['Environment :: Console',
                      'Intended Audience :: Developers',
                      'License :: OSI Approved :: MIT License',
                      'Programming Language :: Python :: 3.4',
                      'Operating System :: POSIX :: Linux',
                      'Topic :: Utilities', ],
         entry_points={'console_scripts': ['commandline = module:function'], }, )
   

   There is lots more that you can do in a setup.py file. This example aims to get you started with the bare minimum required.
