Warehouse is the code behind the Python Package Repository ([[https://pypi.org/|PyPI]]) ([[https://github.com/pypa/warehouse|source code on GitHub]],[[https://wiki.python.org/psf/WarehouseRoadmap|roadmap]]). We are seeking maintainers of Projects on PyPI to test our new two-factor auth functionality and send us bug reports.
Line 4: Line 5:
Warehouse is a next-generation Python Package Repository designed to replace the legacy code base that currently powers [[https://pypi.python.org/|PyPI]] ([[https://github.com/pypa/pypi-legacy/|source code on GitHub]], [[https://wiki.python.org/psf/WarehouseRoadmap|roadmap]]). If you maintain a package on PyPI, we'd love for you to test it and send us bug reports. Go to [[https://pypi.org/|the pre-production deployment at https://pypi.org/]] and try it out! Feedback on user experience, accessibility, and overall ease of use are welcome; we want to support your workflows for account management and package maintainership. Go to [[https://test.pypi.org/|the test site at https://test.pypi.org/]] and try it out!

== Testers we need ==

In particular, please help us test this if any of these apply to you:

 * use Windows
 * usually visit PyPI on a mobile device
 * are an organization where users share an auth token within a group
 * have 4+ maintainers or owners for one project
 * use an unusual TOTP app
 * have a slow Internet connection
 * block cookies and JavaScript
 * maintain 20+ projects
 * created your PyPI account 6+ years ago

== Setting up a TOTP application ==

Users who have chosen to set up two factor authentication (2FA) on their PyPI account must, once 2FA is set up, provide a second method of identity verification (other than their username and password) for each login.

PyPI currently supports a single 2FA method: Generating a code through a TOTP application.

When enabling two factor authentication (2FA) via [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-time_Password_algorithm|TOTP]] in your account admin, you are asked to provision an application (usually a mobile phone app) in order to generate authentication codes. Popular applications include:
  * [[https://freeotp.github.io/|FreeOTP]] (open source)
  * [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.liberty.android.freeotpplus|FreeOTP+]] (open source)
  * Google Authenticator for [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.authenticator2|Android]] or [[https://itunes.apple.com/app/google-authenticator/id388497605|iPhone]] (proprietary)
  * [[https://authy.com/|Authy]] (proprietary)
  * Duo Mobile for [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.duosecurity.duomobile|Android]] and [[https://itunes.apple.com/app/duo-mobile/id422663827|iPhone]] (proprietary)

== Security ==
If you find any potential security vulnerabilities, please [[https://pypi.org/security/|follow our published security policy]]. Please don't report security issues in Warehouse via !GitHub, IRC, or mailing lists. Instead, please directly email one or more of our maintainers.

== PyCon ==
Warehouse developers will be [[PackagingSprints|at the PyCon sprints]] May 6-9 to talk about problems you run into, or about how to hack on Warehouse.

Feel free to drop in!

Reminder! Sign up for the [[https://mail.python.org/mm3/mailman3/lists/pypi-announce.python.org/|PyPI Announcement Mailing List]] to be kept in the loop as we continue this process!
