healthy
healthy checks the health of a Python package from its pypi listing
The package is given a score, based on this formula:
Starting score = 0 Has license + 20 Has release files + 30 Has homepage + 10 Updated in last 6 months + 15 Has summary + 15 Has description + 30 Has author name or email + 10 Has Python classifiers + 15
Results are color coded, based on the score
Usage
The simplest command you can run is
healthy Flask
This will check the latest version of Flask, and give you back its score.
To check a specific version of a package with verbose output
healthy Flask 0.8 -v
There are 3 optional parameters
package_version : positional, to check the health of a specific version of a package -v, --verbose : show reasons for the health scores the packages were given -n, --no-output : print no output to the terminal, useful for integrating healthy with other packages
Sample Output
healthy Django 1.2.1 -v Django v1.2.1 ----- score: 85/145 58% Description missing Python classifiers missing Package not updated in 180 days

A note on package security
PyPI is a repository for distributing packages, not a service for auditing them. While third-party security researchers and our staff do their best to detect and remove malicious packages, PyPI cannot guarantee the quality, security or suitability of any given package.
