twine command not found (circleci)

Question

I am using circleci to automatically deploy my python package to PyPi when a new tag is being pushed to GitHub. I've been following this tutorial

My workflow is failing with the error home/circleci/project/twitter_sentiment/bin/python: No module named twine

I've tried to make sure twine was installed prior to calling the twine command. I've also tried to call the twine command with python -m twine From my understanding, it seems that twine is not added to the path of the container - which causes the command not found error.

How would I go about solving this error?

Answer 1

You're creating a virtual environment, activating it, and then installing twine outside of it.

Remove --user from pip install --user --upgrade twine
