Add to PyPi

[jdittrich]

User Story: I find this extension useful and want to add it easily to my projects.

Solution: Add package to PyPi

Steps:
See: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/

I just noticed this was added to PyPi in August, was this you?

https://pypi.org/project/figureAltCaption/

[jdittrich]

No, was not me.

Oh... this is a bit of a issue... Well, there's three options:

1. Upload the package with a different name
2. Contact the author and ask him to transfer the rights
3. Request ownership, like this person did (your case is similar, the project points to this GitHub repo, so it should work too)

@jdittrich Hi, do you plan to publish this to Pypi recently? I was trying to add this extenstion to my mkdocs project, it would be nice if this extension could be installed via pypi 😄

[jdittrich]

@Ir1d I currently do not get around to refactoring it, sorry :(

[Galarzaa90]

@jdittrich I think the first step would be to try to reclaim the figureAltCaption package from PyPi, from then, I'm sure someone could help with updating it.

I have been wanting to try, but I haven't had time.

Anyway, thx for your time. Really looking forward to this.

I would also be interested to try your plugin on pypi. I would recommend using a more python like name such as figure_alt_caption or mkdocs_figure_alt_caption. This would avoid to relain the former name.

Cheers
