Metadata-Version: 1.0 Name: yolk Version: 0.4.3 Summary: Command-line tool for querying PyPI and Python packages installed on your system. Home-page: https://github.com/cakebread/yolk Author: Rob Cakebread Author-email: cakebread @ gmail License: BSD License Description: yolk 0.4.3 ========== .. contents:: Installation ------------ You can install yolk with ``pip install yolk`` or via your distro's package manager, if available. As of 0.0.7 yolk is in Gentoo's Portage tree as dev-python/yolk and a plugin for Portage named dev-python/yolk-portage. The portage plugin shows you which Python packages were installed via Portage and which were installed directly with pip (or easy_install). Check out that plugin and make one for your favorite distro. It's a great way to find Python cruft. Summary ------- Yolk is a Python tool for obtaining information about installed Python packages and querying packages avilable on PyPI (Python Package Index). You can see which packages are active, non-active or in development mode and show you which have newer versions available by querying PyPI. Usage Examples:: $ yolk -l List all installed Python packages $ yolk -a List only the activated packages installed (Activated packages are normal packages on sys.path you can import) $ yolk -n List only the non-activated (--multi-version) packages installed $ yolk -l -f License,Author nose==1.0 Show the license and author for version 1.0 of the package `nose` $ yolk --entry-map nose Show entry map for the nose package $ yolk --entry-points nose.plugins Show all setuptools entry points for nose.plugins These options query PyPI:: $ yolk -U pkg_name Shows if an update for pkg_name is available by querying PyPI $ yolk -U Checks PyPI to see if any installed Python packages have updates available. $ yolk -F Paste Download source tarball for latest version of Paste to your current directory $ yolk -F Paste -T svn Do a subversion checkout for Paste to a directory named Paste_svn in your current directory. $ yolk -L 2 Show list of CheeseShop releases in the last two hours $ yolk -C 2 Show detailed list of changes in the CheeseShop in the last two hours $ yolk -M Paste==1.0 Show all the metadata for Paste version 1.0 $ yolk -M Paste Show all the metadata for the latest version of Paste listed on PyPi $ yolk -D cheesecake Show all (source, egg, svn) URL's for the latest version of cheesecake packages $ yolk -T source -D cheesecake Show only source code releases for cheesecake $ yolk -H twisted Launches your web browser at Twisted's home page Tips and Tricks --------------- * Use yolk inside your virtualenv to see which packages are installed. * Upgrade all installed Python packages: Warning: You only want to do this inside a virtualenv. If you're using Linux, use your package manager to install Python packages globally whenever possible. Think twice before upgrading all packages system-wide on OSX. $ pip install -U `yolk -U | awk '{print $1}'` Changes ------- **0.4.3**: Added missing documentation and license files **0.4.2**: Fix for -C when an integer isn't supplied Fix for --entry-map from Jesus Rivero (Neurogeek) neurogeek@gentoo.org. Thanks, Jesus! Switch to BSD license from GPL-2 **0.4.1**: Fix for -f fields Add check for integer with -L **0.4.0**: Added http proxy support for XML-RPC Added case-insensitive search for -f Non-existent packages with -S no longer show entire index (bug was with PyPI) Fixed exception when package has no metadata **0.3.0**: Added -C and -L options for new PyPI XML-RPC methods `changelog` and `updated_releases` Always check package name cache on disk before querying PyPi to see if a package exists and has proper case. Added -F option to download source, egg or subversion checkouts. Removed -L RSS feed option because the new `updated_releases` XML-RPC method is much nicer Fixed '-D -T egg' so it won't return source if no egg is available Major refactoring. Removed dependency on elementtree **0.2.0**: Added 'svn' type for -T A kablillion bug fixes **0.1.0**: You can now use -f with -M More accurate URL's with -D using pip Ability to check for a single package with -U Uses std Python logging module Fixed bug so we have correct exit codes **0.0.7**: New options: --entry-map and -entry-points Improved results with --download-links New plugin system. First plugin available: yolk-portage for Gentoo Linux. -v option is now --version -v is now a new option: --verbose Many bug fixes. **0.0.6**: Fix Windows problem which showed all pkgs in develop mode on some systems. Fix bad interpreter shebang in rss_feed.py example Start using nose unit tests from setup.py Use restructuredtext in docstrings **0.0.5**: Show packages installed in 'development' mode. Improved output of -l, -n and -a. You can get the previous (<=0.0.4) output by adding '-f Summary' More sanity checking for various options. Don't throw exception if there is no package metadata **0.0.4**: Added -U option to query PyPI for new versions of packages you have installed Requirements ------------ * setuptools (Distribute preferred) * elementtree (For RSS feed option extra_requires [RSS]) (included in Python >=2.5) Keywords: PyPI setuptools cheeseshop distutils eggs package management Platform: UNKNOWN Classifier: Development Status :: 4 - Beta Classifier: Intended Audience :: Developers Classifier: License :: OSI Approved :: BSD License Classifier: Programming Language :: Python Classifier: Topic :: Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
