Missing source distribution on PyPI #166

Closed jochembroekhoff closed 2 years ago

jochembroekhoff commented 2 years ago

Until version 0.8.9, jsons has always provided a source distribution on PyPI, separate from the wheel. Recent-ish versions don't do this anymore, even though it is conventional for most packages published on PyPI to have one (*1).

For a larger project I am working on, jsons is the only package that does not include a source distribution. We are targeting a constrained custom platform for which we cannot use any wheels (or any other form of built distribution), so it would be great if future releases could actually include this variant.

Hi @jochembroekhoff. Thank you for pointing this out, I wasn't aware of this. For the time being, you can still find the sources on Github, under the releases.

FYI: the newest release comes with sources.

Closing this ticket.
