napari-hub-cli

Command line utilities for inspecting and validating plugins for the napari hub.

Usage

Metadata

This package provides two utilities for previewing and validating the metadata we will inspect from your plugin and display on the napari hub.

Previewing Metadata

$ napari-hub-cli preview-metadata /tmp/example-plugin

or

# display one field at a time and wait for input
$ napari-hub-cli preview-metadata /tmp/example-plugin -i

This utility will inspect the plugin at the given path for metadata and display it for preview.

Each field of metadata is accompanied by the file and attribute where it was found. When fields are missing, they are accompanied instead by a suggested source. When a field is sourced from setup.py, it is always an argument to the setup method.

Version - Depending on how you manage versioning for your package, we may not be able to parse its latest version. The version of your package displayed on the napari hub will always be the latest version released on PyPI.

Project Site - If your url or Project Site metadata is a GitHub url, it will be displayed as the Source Code field instead.

You can then use check-metadata to get a display of just the missing metadata. See Customizing Your Plugin Listing for a detailed guide on how you can add this metadata to your project.

Checking Missing Metadata

$ napari-hub-cli check-missing /tmp/example-plugin

or

# display one field at a time and wait for input
$ napari-hub-cli check-missing /tmp/example-plugin -i

This utility will only display the metadata missing from your plugin, and will also suggest where you can add it. All metadata listed here will be displayed on your plugin's napari hub page. When this metadata might also be used for sorting, filtering or searching for plugins, this information is also displayed.

Example output:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MISSING: Twitter
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        SUGGESTED SOURCE:       /.napari/config.yml: project_urls, Twitter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
