Treasure - The PYPI-bot

Info:Read the documentation hosted at readthedocs. Author:Daniel Waardal

Trove

n. A collection of valuable items discovered or found; a treasure-trove.

What is this alla about?

This is a module that queries pypi for updates of a sequence of troves during a certain time and processes the difference.

• It isn’t using the pubsubhubbub interface though? - No, not yet at least.
• Why was this created?

• When creating the twitter-bot twittering under the py3k-handle (@py3k) I realized that checking for updates to trove-classifiers on pypi might be interesting for all kinds of bots (IRC, XMPP etc.). That’s why this module exist.*

Examples

The documentation will be expanded in the future. Right now I leave you with this:

from pprint import pprint
from treasure import troves

CLASSIFIERS = ('Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: WSGI',
               'Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: WSGI :: Application',
               'Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: WSGI :: Middleware',
               'Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: WSGI :: Server',
               )

for result in troves(CLASSIFIERS):
    pprint result
