.. _wiki2_distributing_your_application:
=============================
Distributing Your Application
=============================
Once your application works properly, you can create a "tarball" from it by
using the ``setup.py sdist`` command. The following commands assume your
current working directory contains the ``tutorial`` package and the
``setup.py`` file.
On UNIX:
.. code-block:: bash
$ $VENV/bin/python setup.py sdist
On Windows:
.. code-block:: doscon
c:\tutorial> %VENV%\Scripts\python setup.py sdist
The output of such a command will be something like:
.. code-block:: text
running sdist
# more output
creating dist
Creating tar archive
removing 'tutorial-0.0' (and everything under it)
Note that this command creates a tarball in the ``dist`` subdirectory named
``tutorial-0.0.tar.gz``. You can send this file to your friends to show them
your cool new application. They should be able to install it by pointing the
``pip install`` command directly at it. Or you can upload it to `PyPI
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi>`_ and share it with the rest of the world, where
it can be downloaded via ``pip install`` remotely like any other package people
download from PyPI.
