poetry publish fails despite a dist folder being present

[tschm]

Ok, I have been told it's better to keep the build and deployment in two separate jobs (for security reasons). So, I build my project (poetry build) and share the resulting dist folder with a second job that gets an ephemeral key and pushes to pypi. This used to work if the build step was in the same job. Here's an example:

https://github.com/tschm/mosek-license-server

i get

No files to publish. Run poetry build first or use the --build option.
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

The dist folder is present and as expected packed with

drwxr-xr-x  2 runner docker 4096 Aug 23 19:40 .
drwxr-xr-x 10 runner docker 4096 Aug 23 19:40 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 runner docker 7145 Aug 23 19:40 mosek_license_server-0.8.4-py3-none-any.whl
-rw-r--r--  1 runner docker 6168 Aug 23 19:40 mosek_license_server-0.8.4.tar.gz

The error message could definitely be improved, but poetry will only look for a built distribution matching the version number in pyproject.toml. Since your build job updates this version, your deploy job will need to do the same

Ayyup, I too fell for this tarp. That error message should really be updated to include this word of warning <3

Ouch. I just fell over this error message.. and now I am not sure how to solve it.
We have the version in the __init__.py:

__version__ = "1.0.0"

## This is needed 
def get_info():
    return {
        "package-name": "some_package",  # Required
        "name": "some",  # Required
        "description": "A package for something.",  # Required
        "connection-types": [
            {
                "connection-type": "foo",
                "hook-class-name": "...."
            }
        ],
        "versions": [__version__],  # Required
    }

Then in the pyproject.toml, we are using setuptools for parsing the __version__:

[build-system]
requires = [
    "setuptools",
    "wheel"
]
build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"

[project]
dynamic = [
    "version"
]

# required by poetry but unused due to usage of setuptools
[tool.poetry]
version = "0"

[tool.setuptools.dynamic]
version = { attr = "some_package.__version__" }

project.version is "0", but __version__ is the actual used value.

Always needing to update both files is not DRY.

Has anybody any ideas?
