Disable publishing to PyPi with poetry

I am a setting up Poetry in combination with Tox to automate builds and testing. The project I am working on however is private and I want to avoid anyone working on it accidentally publishing it to PyPi. I have initialized a project using poetry init and my assumption is that the resulting setup does not result in a viable package that can be published without any further setup to begin with. Is this correct?

How could I further configure poetry so that even if someone accidentally runs poetry publish in the future the package will not actually be published.

As I know poetry does not support such straightforward option yet. But the workaround is possible:

[tool.poetry]
exclude = ["**"]

In TOML format: * denotes a single level wildcard, and ** denotes all files in the given directory hierarchy.

exclude = ["**"] option prevents project files from getting into the package when poetry build is executed. It will show:

[ModuleOrPackageNotFound]
No file/folder found for package package_name

But nevertheless, poetry will create a tar.gz file and include three files in it: pyproject.toml, setup.py, and PKG-INFO. And it can be published
