How do I set up a Python package?

To set up a Python package, you need to create a directory structure and include a setup.py file.

What should be included in the setup.py file?

The setup.py file should include metadata like name, version, author, and a list of packages to include.

Can you give me an example of a setup.py file?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from setuptools import setup, find_packages

setup(
    name='my_package',
    version='0.1',
    author='Your Name',
    packages=find_packages(),
)

How do I install my package locally?

You can install your package locally by running pip install . in the directory containing your setup.py.
