It's funny, I used to have a very popular (~2k pageviews a month, 1st or second search result on google) tutorial on how to get a package onto pypi. I deleted it because since then the PyPI team have written a good guide on how to do it: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/ . If you're reading this and wondering how to create a python package, follow that. Everything else is going to be wrong, or out-of-date, or worse.
