If you have exactly one Python file, for instance: pangu.py, use py_modules instead of packages in setup.py:

py_modules=['pangu', ],

ref:
https://docs.python.org/2/distutils/examples.html#pure-python-distribution-by-package

setuptools.find_packages() finds *.py files only, you're able to set include_package_data=True for including requirements.txt or *.html files. Additionally, you may specify extra files to include or exclude in MANIFEST.in:

recursive-include jokekappa/jokes *.json
include LICENSE
include README.rst
include requirements.txt

.pypirc Example

in ~/.pypirc

[pypi]
username=YOUR_USERNAME
password=YOUR_PASSWORD

Usage

# list available Python versions
$ pyenv install -l

# install a certain version
$ pyenv install 2.7.16
$ pyenv install 3.7.4

# list installed Python versions
$ pyenv versions

# set the default Python version
$ pyenv global 3.5.1

# you can set both Python 2 and 3
$ pyenv global 3.7.4 2.7.16

# switch to the system default Python version
$ pyenv global system

# set the Python version for the current folder
# which generates `.python-version` in the same folder
