Installation¤

with PyPI Insiders¤

PyPI Insiders is a tool that helps you keep up-to-date versions of Insiders projects in the PyPI index of your choice (self-hosted, Google registry, Artifactory, etc.).

See how to install it and how to use it.

We kindly ask that you do not upload the distributions to public registries, as it is against our Terms of use.

with pip (ssh/https)¤

griffe-runtime-objects Insiders can be installed with pip using SSH:

pip install git+ssh://git@github.com/pawamoy-insiders/griffe-runtime-objects.git

Or using HTTPS:

pip install git+https://${GH_TOKEN}@github.com/pawamoy-insiders/griffe-runtime-objects.git
How to get a GitHub personal access token

The GH_TOKEN environment variable is a GitHub token. It can be obtained by creating a personal access token for your GitHub account. It will give you access to the Insiders repository, programmatically, from the command line or GitHub Actions workflows:

  1. Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens
  2. Click on Generate a new token
  3. Enter a name and select the repo scope
  4. Generate the token and store it in a safe place

Note that the personal access token must be kept secret at all times, as it allows the owner to access your private repositories.

When cloning with Git, the package must be installed:

When upgrading Insiders, you should always check the version of griffe-runtime-objects which makes up the first part of the version qualifier. For example, a version like 8.x.x.4.x.x means that Insiders 4.x.x is currently based on 8.x.x.
