Push to pypi when a new release is created

[jonhealy1]

Right now with gh actions, a new release is pushed to pypi every time a pr is merged into main. We should change this - if we can - so that this only happens when a new release is created.

@jonhealy1 unsure what the status is here, but v3.1.0 isn't on pypi.

Hi. I will push to pypi in the morning

[jonhealy1]

https://pypi.org/project/stac-validator/3.1.0/ It was less problematic than I thought

[jonhealy1]

Still need a good script

If you want, stactools has a publish-on-tag-push workflow that you could copy: https://github.com/stac-utils/stactools/blob/main/.github/workflows/release.yml.

nice thanks. What does this do? What activates this? My git is weak

  push:
    tags:
      - "*"

[jonhealy1]

You push a branch with a tag associated to it maybe - what would that look like?

[gadomski]

push:
    tags:
      - "*"

means the workflow will run any time a tag is pushed to the repo, e.g.:

git tag -a v0.3.1
git push origin v0.3.1

There's some docs on how the release flow works for stactools here: https://github.com/stac-utils/stactools/blob/main/RELEASING.md.
