pyroma 0.9.1

Test your projects packaging friendlyness

pyroma
======

Pyroma rhymes with aroma, and is a product aimed at giving a rating of how well
a Python project complies with the best practices of the Python packaging
ecosystem, primarily PyPI, pip, Distribute etc, as well as a list of issues that
could be improved.

The aim of this is both to help people make a project that is nice and usable,
but also to improve the quality of Python third-party software, making it easier
and more enjoyable to use the vast array of available modules for Python.

It's written so that there are a library with methods to call from Python, as
well as a script, also called pyroma.

It can be run on a project directory before making a release:

$ pyroma .

On a distribution before uploading it to the CheeseShop:

$ pyroma pyroma-1.0.tar.gz

Or you can give it a package name on CheeseShop:

$ pyroma pyroma

In all cases the output is similar:

------------------------------

Final rating: 9/10

TODO
----

* Figure out why the long_description doesn't render to HTML properly.

* Add a test for that.

* Figure out how to stop ast from failing on perfectly valid code.

* Discuss whether to check for missing imports at all, since so many
packages seem to break this.

* More verification tests?

* More unit tests! Many more unit tests!!! And mock PyPI instead of using it.
