python module name to package name map
Project description
# pymod2pkg
pymod2pkg is a simple python module for translating python module names to corresponding package names which is a common problem in the packaging world.
Note that [rdopkg](https://github.com/redhat-openstack/rdopkg) uses this module to check whether packages corresponding to requirements.txt are available across distros and more.
## Installation
### from source
If you want to hack pymod2pkg or just have the latest version without waiting for next release, I suggest using the git repo directly a la
git clone https://github.com/redhat-openstack/pymod2pkg cd pymod2pkg python setup.py develop –user
### from PyPI
For your convenience, pymod2pkg is also available from the Cheese Shop:
pip install pymod2pkg
## Usage
module2package is probably all you need, it accepts a module name to convert and a distro name (currently irrelevant):
import pymod2pkg
pkg = pymod2pkg.module2package(‘six’, ‘fedora’)
There’s not much more, really, so RTFS.
## Fixing/extending the map
Currently, only one package map for RPM-based systems is provided, but it’d be nice to have all the distros covered and it’s really easy to do so.
See *_PKG_MAP and get_pkg_map, hack it to your liking and send a pull request.
