setuptools-metadata 0.1.5

setuptools-metadata - Adds metadata command to setup.py

Using custom_metadata in setup call

from setuptools import setup
setup(
name='spam',
custom_metadata={
'x_str': 'bla',
'x_int': 23,
'x_list': ['a', 'b', 'c']})

Using 'setup.py metadata'

./setup.py metadata --key=install_requires
pygraphviz
lxml
another-package

This prints out the 'install_requires' setup keyword argument.

If it can't find the requested key, it will also search the custom_metadata dict:

./setup.py metadata --key=x_str
bla

./setup.py metadata --key=x_int
23

./setup.py metadata --key=x_list
a
b
c
