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.
