title: include json file in python package pypi
body: <p>I have a file tree (look below) and my Python file <code>api.py</code> uses data from <code>data/data.json</code>. But I want to make sure that once I upload my package to PyPi it also includes the <code>data</code> directory, because if not the program just not gonna work at all.</p>
  <pre><code>- api
     __init__.py
     api.py
  - data
      data.json
  setup.py
  README.md
  requirements.txt
  LICENSE
  .gitignore
  </code></pre>
  <p><strong>setup.py</strong></p>
  <pre><code>from setuptools import setup, find_packages
  
  with open('README.md', 'r') as f:
      long_description = f.read()
      
  setup(
      name='api',
      version='1.0',
      author='name',
      author_email='email',
      description='api',
      long_description=long_description,
      long_description_content_type='text/markdown',
      url='link',
      packages=find_packages(),
      package_data={'api': ['../data/data.json']},
      include_package_data=True,
      install_requires=[
          'requests',
          'beautifulsoup4',
          'numpy',
        ]
  )
  </code></pre>
  <p>How can I upload and include the <code>data.json</code> file?</p>
