[Distutils] Best practice to build binary wheels on Github+Travis and upload to PyPI

[Lele Gaifax]

Hi all,

I'd like to learn how to configure a project I keep on Github so that at
release time it will trigger a build of binary wheels for different versions
of Python 3 and eventually uploading them to PyPI.

At first I tried to follow the Travis deploy instruction[1], but while that
works for source distribution it cannot be used to deploy binary wheels
because AFAICT Travis does not build “manylinux1”-marked wheels.

I then found the manylinux-demo project[2] that uses Docker and contains a
a script able to build the wheels for every available version of Python. OTOH,
it does not tackle to PyPI upload step.

I will try to distill a custom recipe for my own needs looking at how other
packages implemented this goal, but I wonder if there is already some
documentation that could help me understanding better how to intersect the
above steps.

Thanks in advance for any hint,
ciao, lele.
