Search for OS Names and Versions
Project description
distro-names
A way to search OS distribution names and versions
Aren't you tired of searching things like "Which version is Ubuntu Trusty again", or "is Debian 8 stretch or wheezy"? Well, I am... so I wrote this small python script to match OS versions with their names and vice versa.
Simply use the CLI to search like this:
$ distro trusty
Flavour: Ubuntu
Full Name: Trusty Thar
Name: trusty
Versions: 14.04, 14.04.6
or use the version:
$ distro debian 7
Flavour: Debian
Name: wheezy
Versions: 7
Install
Using Python pip:
$ pip install distro-names
Contributing
Please feel free to contribute to this humble project - you can add distro names and versions to distro/data.py
or improve the search capabilities in distro/distro.py
.
This is a pure Python
implementation, so no libs are required. If you'd like to contribute, only PyTest and make are required...
TO DO
- Automated tests for the Distro class
- Automated tests for the CLI
- Homebrew tap for MacOS X installations
- Port to Python 2
- Fix Travis CI issues
- Make this readme compatible with the PyPy format
- Add lint checks
