check for updates on PyPi
Project description
Small pip update helpers.
sudo -H pipdate sudo -H pipdate3
updates all your pip{3}-installed packages.
There’s a Python interface as well that can be used for upgrade notifications. Simply do
import pipdate
msg = pipdate.check('matplotlib', '0.4.5')
print(msg)This will print
Upgrade to matplotlib 2.0.0 available! (installed: 0.4.5) matplotlib's API changes in this upgrade. Changes to your code may be necessary. To upgrade matplotlib with pip, type pip install -U matplotlib To upgrade _all_ pip-installed packages, use pipdate/pipdate3 To disable these checks, set SecondsBetweenChecks in /home/jdoe/.config/pipdate/config.ini
If you guard the check with
if pipdate.needs_checking('matplotlib'):
print(pipdate.check('matplotlib', '0.4.5'))then it will be performed at most every k seconds, where k is specified in the config file $HOME/.config/pipdate/config.ini, e.g., once a day
[DEFAULT] secondsbetweenchecks = 86400
This can, for example, be used by module authors to notify users of upgrades of their own modules.
