How to use PyO3 custom module in production

Question

I have created a custom module in rust and converted it to a python module using PyO3 binding. It works on a local machine using the hardcoded route, unlike other packages where it only has a name. I understand other packages are launched in PIP so they can be downloaded anywhere. But is it possible that I can use my custom package in production? I haven't tried it yet because I know it won't work, since dependencies need to be available in PIP to be able to download it remotely.

Answer 1

The PyO3 project maintains a tool called maturin whose purpose is to help publish pyo3 or mixed python/pyo3 project to pypi.

That is probably the simplest way of publishing to pypi such that pip install can find the package.

The PyO3 documentation also has a publication page.
