I never did this @mrchrisadams but in theory you’d package up and define an entry point, as for any cli tool.

Flit is lightweight, and my favourite tool for packaging for pure Python packages.

[https://flit.pypa.io/en/stable/pyproject\_toml.html#pyproject-project-entrypoints](https://flit.pypa.io/en/stable/pyproject_toml.html#pyproject-project-entrypoints)

If you get stuck, I can try a demo for you when I’m at the computer.
