With the GitLab PyPI Repository, every project can have its own space to store PyPI packages.
Publish PyPI packages in your project’s Package Registry. Then install the
packages whenever you need to use them as a dependency.
The GitLab PyPI Repository works with:
The GitLab PyPI Repository works with:
-[pip](https://pypi.org/project/pip/)
-[pip](https://pypi.org/project/pip/)
-[twine](https://pypi.org/project/twine/)
-[twine](https://pypi.org/project/twine/)
## Setting up your development environment
## Build a PyPI package
You need a recent version of [pip](https://pypi.org/project/pip/) and [twine](https://pypi.org/project/twine/).
This section covers creating a new example PyPI package to upload. This is a
quickstart to test out the **GitLab PyPI Registry**. If you already understand

how to build and publish your own packages, move on to the [next section](#authenticate-with-the-package-registry).
NOTE: **Note:**
This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
[enabled support for the Package Registry](../../../administration/packages/index.md).
After the PyPI Repository is enabled, it is available for all new projects
by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want to disable it:
1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Visibility, project features, permissions**.
1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
You should then be able to see the **Packages & Registries** section on the left sidebar.
