- What is it?
- -----------
- Distlib is a library which implements low-level functions that relate to
- packaging and distribution of Python software. It is intended to be used as the
- basis for third-party packaging tools. The documentation is available at
- https://distlib.readthedocs.io/
- Main features
- -------------
- Distlib currently offers the following features:
- * The package ``distlib.database``, which implements a database of installed
- distributions, as defined by :pep:`376`, and distribution dependency graph
- logic. Support is also provided for non-installed distributions (i.e.
- distributions registered with metadata on an index like PyPI), including
- the ability to scan for dependencies and building dependency graphs.
- * The package ``distlib.index``, which implements an interface to perform
- operations on an index, such as registering a project, uploading a
- distribution or uploading documentation. Support is included for verifying
- SSL connections (with domain matching) and signing/verifying packages using
- GnuPG.
- * The package ``distlib.metadata``, which implements distribution metadata as
- defined by :pep:`643`, :pep:`566`, :pep:`345`, :pep:`314` and :pep:`241`.
- * The package ``distlib.markers``, which implements environment markers as
- defined by :pep:`508`.
- * The package ``distlib.manifest``, which implements lists of files used
- in packaging source distributions.
- * The package ``distlib.locators``, which allows finding distributions, whether
- on PyPI (XML-RPC or via the "simple" interface), local directories or some
- other source.
- * The package ``distlib.resources``, which allows access to data files stored
- in Python packages, both in the file system and in .zip files.
- * The package ``distlib.scripts``, which allows installing of scripts with
- adjustment of shebang lines and support for native Windows executable
- launchers.
- * The package ``distlib.version``, which implements version specifiers as
- defined by :pep:`440`, but also support for working with "legacy" versions and
- semantic versions.
- * The package ``distlib.wheel``, which provides support for building and
- installing from the Wheel format for binary distributions (see :pep:`427`).
- * The package ``distlib.util``, which contains miscellaneous functions and
- classes which are useful in packaging, but which do not fit neatly into
- one of the other packages in ``distlib``.* The package implements enhanced
- globbing functionality such as the ability to use ``**`` in patterns to
- specify recursing into subdirectories.
- Python version and platform compatibility
- -----------------------------------------
- Distlib is intended to be used on and is tested on Python versions 2.7 and 3.6 or later,
- pypy-2.7 and pypy3 on Linux, Windows, and macOS.
- Project status
- --------------
- The project has reached a mature status in its development: there is a comprehensive
- test suite and it has been exercised on Windows, Ubuntu and macOS. The project is used
- by well-known projects such as `pip <https://pypi.org/pypi/pip>`_ and `caniusepython3
- <https://pypi.org/pypi/caniusepython3>`_.
- This project was migrated from Mercurial to Git and from BitBucket to GitHub, and
- although all information of importance has been retained across the migration, some
- commit references in issues and issue comments may have become invalid.
- Code of Conduct
- ---------------
- Everyone interacting in the distlib project's codebases, issue trackers, chat
- rooms, and mailing lists is expected to follow the `PyPA Code of Conduct`_.
