Add a GitHub Action to publish to PyPI (#347)

cclauss · web-flow · commit e9e17f035d96 · 2025-04-02T13:02:29.000+02:00
Implement PyPI’s [trusted publishing](https://docs.pypi.org/trusted-publishers/) and use the [sigstore/gh-action-sigstore-python GitHub Action](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/gh-action-sigstore-python) to sign the distribution packages. This script is from https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/publishing-package-distribution-releases-using-github-actions-ci-cd-workflows An alternative would be to use https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/package running under https://github.com/astral-sh/setup-uv
