pip_name_generator

pip_name_generator is a Python package designed for generating unique, PyPI-compatible package names based on descriptive text. It uses a combination of deterministic fallback mechanisms and simulated LLM signals to produce candidate names, ensuring that the first available name is returned efficiently without requiring network access.

Installation

To install pip_name_generator, use pip:

pip install pip_name_generator

Usage

Here's an example of how to utilize pip_name_generator to generate an available package name for a product described as "Data analysis toolkit":

from pip_name_generator import generate_available_package_name

# Example description
description = "Data analysis toolkit"

# Generate a package name
name = generate_available_package_name(description, llm=None)

print(f"Suggested package name: {name}")

Features

  • Simulated name availability check to avoid network calls
  • Supports mock LLM inputs for more contextual candidates
  • Falls back to deterministic name generation if LLM signals are unavailable
  • Ensures generated names are valid PyPI names (lowercase, underscores, alphanumeric)
