Upload packages from the Ravenstash app

Use the app for an initial package or occasional manual release:

1. Open the package repository.
2. Select the PyPI, npm, or Maven tab that matches the files.
3. Select Upload package.
4. Choose the files, review the detected package and version, then upload.

The browser uses a short-lived upload credential; no API token is required.

File requirements

Ecosystem	Files accepted by the app
PyPI	Wheel (.whl) and source distribution (.tar.gz) files for one package and version
npm	One .tgz or .tar.gz tarball produced by npm pack
Maven	A POM and the artifact, classifier, signature, or checksum files for one coordinate and version

Ravenstash validates the selection and computes integrity checksums before upload. For Maven, it can generate common missing checksum companions and handles snapshot conventions.

Note

Container and Helm repositories do not have a one-file browser upload. Use rvs docker, rvs helm, or rvs oras so the client publishes every required manifest and layer.

Use native tools for automation

For repeatable releases, use rvs with an explicit repository target. See CI/CD or the package-type publish guide.

Caution

Do not use the upload dialog to bypass your normal build, signing, review, or provenance process. Inspect locally produced artifacts before uploading them.
