On the other hand, since it does not support virtual environments, one positive side of the slow pace of updates is that it makes Pythonista a more stable platform, in a sense.

@mikael I tried to do it with setuptools twine from my iPhone, but never managed to make it work. I had to resort to a Mac.

@bennr01 In the Github ywangd/stash repository, there is no 0.7.0 release. Is there a new official repo?

No, actually I did that from my Mac, using twine. Not sure if twine works in iOS/Pythonista.

Very nice. This is such an important tool, that I believe it deserves more integration with Pythonista, like for instance some button to install it directly from the app’s settings.

The new release of my image optimization command-line utility is out. It has a couple of cool new features and, for the first time, it is now available on PyPI, which means you can just pip install it as any other Python package. It is a command-line tool but also works on iOS inside Pythonista. I use it together with Pelican in my workflow to blog from iOS.

Check it out!

Hi. I am preparing to release a new package on PyPI and would like to test it also on iOS, while experimenting with Test PyPI. In desktop, I am using pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ PACKAGE-NAME.

Is it possible to specify the URL for Test PyPI in the StaSh version of pip?

If it comes with same same kind of performance improvement I saw in desktop systems, I also can’t wait for it. One of my applications saw a breathtaking 50 to 100% improvement. In other applications there is no to little difference, but in some contexts it is really noticeable.

This other conversation may bring additional insight about the performance question:

A first generation iPad mini should have a performance comparable with iPad 2, as it has the same processor and amount to memory. I have an old iPad 2, I can say that Pythonista is not nearly as fast as in my iPhone 7, but it works for simple tasks and for reading documentation.

Over the last 12 years, I have been blogging almost uninterruptedly about different subjects (mostly on tech stuff), on different platforms and using a variety of devices and applications. First on desktop and laptop computers, and more recently from iPhone and iPad. This year I went on to try something new and decided to create this blog based on Pelican, a static site generator made with Python. And I got the whole process working even from my iPhone, which has become, arguably, my main personal computer.

So, how do I publish new content to this blog from my iPhone, using 4 taps or voice commands?
