Python

Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Packages are published on the Python Package Index (pypi), however the FINOS account is still empty, see pypi.org/user/finos .

Publishing on Pypi

Python packages can be easily installed using pip or easy_install; in order to publish a Python package to the Python Package Index, follow the simple steps described on this blogpost.

That said, the Foundation is still working on a centralised, automated way to publish (and sign) Python packages so that they can be managed by Foundation Staff.
