How do I install the latest version?

[Lesabg]

The version deployed to PyPi (https://pypi.org/project/PyPika) is at 0.48.9 which was released at Mar 15, 2022. Is there any plan on deploying the latest version to PyPi? I'm missing some features on master which I would like to have in my projects.

There is no one maintaining Pypika unfortunately. I am merging pull requests but I am not releasing new versions as this requires more time. Could you use the latest code on Github?

@AzisK Do you have write access to the PyPi package? I could convert the project to poetry or uv which makes releasing new versions much easier. I'm maintaining a few smaller projects, too, and I'd be happy to jump in and help with rejuvenating this project. This project is really lagging behind its Issues and PRs. Not having a release for 2.5 years is usually a sign of being "dead".

From the look of it it really seems abandoned which is quite a shame as PyPika is the single best Query Builder for SQL in Python that I know of.

@AzisK @twheys Can I ping you? I think @bikeshedder made good offer to transfer repo to him(or at least transfer permissions to repo and PyPI). This would allow not to force everyone to create own versions of pypika with a tiny community support(why one more contributor would go to one more fork with 0 stars)

@bikeshedder @Valt25 I believe this is a great offer. I believe I would be able to find the PyPI credentials somewhere. About having a maintainer outside the company or even donating it to the public, we have to negotiate that with the company

[Valt25]

@AzisK Can I kindly remind about this issue?

[Valt25]

@AzisK @twheys I hope you had a good start to the new year. Can I ask you about the state of all this staff(PyPI credentials, negotiation with the company). Can I help you with anything?

If there is any issue transfering to individual we may be able to get it accepted at https://github.com/PSF if we can claim there are 3 maintainers
