#Introduction

#What is PyPI Connector

PyPI Connector is a specialized connector component that enables secure and convenient integration with PyPI Registry, allowing users to interact with PyPI Registry secretlessly in clients like pip, twine.

Once PyPI Connector Component is deployed, users can:

• Create PyPI connectors to integrate with various PyPI Registries (PyPI repository hosted by Nexus, Artifactory, etc.)
• Perform pip and twine operations in CI/CD pipelines or kubernetes workloads without directly handling credentials.

#Application Scenarios

The PyPI Connector allows you to perform pip and twine operations securely by:

• Managing credentials centrally rather than hardcoding them in clients
• Automatically injecting authentication during the pip and twine operations

This approach is particularly useful for:

• CI/CD pipelines or kubernetes jobs requiring access PyPI Registry
• Teams sharing PyPI Registry access without sharing credentials
• Environments requiring centralized management of PyPI Registry credentials without distributing credentials to each client
