+# GitLab PyPi Repository **(PREMIUM)**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/208747) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.10.
+
+With the GitLab PyPi Repository, every project can have its own space to store PyPi packages.
+
+The GitLab PyPi Repository works with:
+
+- [pip](https://pypi.org/project/pip/)
+- [twine](https://pypi.org/project/twine/)
+
+## Setting up your development environment
+
+You will need a recent version of [pip](https://pypi.org/project/pip/) and [twine](https://pypi.org/project/twine/).
+
+## Enabling the PyPi Repository
+
+NOTE: **Note:**
+This option is available only if your GitLab administrator has
+[enabled support for the Package Registry](../../../administration/packages/index.md). **(PREMIUM ONLY)**
+
+After the PyPi Repository is enabled, it will be available for all new projects
+by default. To enable it for existing projects, or if you want to disable it:
+
+1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > General > Permissions**.
+1. Find the Packages feature and enable or disable it.
+1. Click on **Save changes** for the changes to take effect.
+
+You should then be able to see the **Packages** section on the left sidebar.
+
+## Adding the GitLab PyPi Repository as a source
+
+You will need the following:
+
+- A personal access token. You can generate a [personal access token](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) with the scope set to `api` for repository authentication.
+- A suitable name for your source.
+- Your project ID which can be found on the home page of your project.
+
+Edit your `~/.pypirc` file and add the following:
+
+```ini
+[gitlab]
+repository = https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/pypi
+username = __token__
+password = <your personal access token>
+```
+
+## Uploading packages
+
+When uploading packages, note that:
+
+- The maximum allowed size is 50 Megabytes.
+- If you upload the same package with the same version multiple times, each consecutive upload
+  is saved as a separate file. When installing a package, GitLab will serve the most recent file.
+- When uploading packages to GitLab, they will not be displayed in the packages UI of your project
+  immediately. It can take up to 10 minutes to process a package.
+
+### Upload packages with Twine
+
+This section assumes that your project is properly built and you already [created a PyPi package with setuptools](https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/).
+Upload your package using the following command:
+
+```shell
+python -m twine upload --repository <source_name> dist/<package_file>
+```
+
+Where:
+
+- `<package_file>` is your package filename, ending in `.tar.gz` or `.whl`.
+- `<source_name>` is the [source name used during setup](#adding-the-gitlab-pypi-repository-as-a-source).
+
+## Install packages
+
+Install the latest version of a package using the following command:
+
+```shell
+pip install --index-url https://__token__:<personal_access_token>@gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/pypi/simple --no-deps <package_name>
+```
+
+Where:
+
+- `<package_name>` is the package name.
+- `<personal_access_token>` is your personal access token.
+- `<project_id>` is your project id number.
