I have been hitting the old NumPy wall a lot of times lately, as it is a very frequent dependency in other packages (for instance astropy and its affiliated packages like astroplan). NumPy 1.8.0 is now about 6 years old, which makes it very like to be an issue for almost any packages that requires it. Simply too old.

Well, I am not the most frequent participant if this forum, but I like to come around and check what people are talking about from time to time, or to ask for help.

I understand your concerns, but to be honest, I don’t feel that Reddit would be a viable alternative. This forum format (or a Discourse-based one) is much more easy to read on both desktop and mobile, even long discussions. Every time I get into Reddit, I end up getting the impression that I am in the middle of something a bit messy.

Very good news, I will be entering the beta today.

Some packages seem to be in need of an update, maybe the final version may include something with respect to that.

I still have an old iPad 2 (iOS 9) that I use together with my iPhone 7, I also wish that this iPad doesn't get unsupported right now...

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?
