| package_releases(package_name, show_hidden=False): Returns list of release versions, as strings, e.g., ['0.1', '0.2b', '0.2'], in chronological order. If show_hidden is True then both hidden and unhidden will be listed. |
'''list_packages()''' Retrieve a list of the package names registered with the package index. Returns a list of name strings. |
| Line 10: | Line 20: |
| package_stable_version(package_name): Returns packages.stable_version; the current stable version of the package. E.g., the string '0.3' |
'''package_releases(package name)''' Retrieve a list of the releases registered for the given package name. Returns a list of version strings. |
| Line 14: | Line 23: |
| package_urls(package_name, version): A list of {'url': url, 'packagetype': packagetype}, like [{'url': 'http://svn.pythonpaste.org/Paste/trunk', 'packagetype': 'svn_trunk'}, {'url': 'http://pythonpaste.org/Paste-0.1.tar.gz', 'packagetype': 'sdist'}] |
'''release_urls(package_name, version)''' Retrieve a list of download URLs for the given package release. Returns a list of dicts {'url': the url, 'packagetype': the download package type} where the packagetype is one of the setup.py package types ('sdist', 'bdist', etc). |
| Line 20: | Line 26: |
| package_data(package_name, version): A dictionary that summarizes the releases table, plus release_classifiers. E.g.: { { { {'name': 'OpenRelease', 'version': '0.1.2', 'author': 'Richard Harris', 'author_email': 'author@address.example', 'maintainer': '', 'maintainer_email': '', 'homepage': 'http://open-release.sourceforge.net', 'download_url': 'http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/projects/open-release/OpenRelease-0.1.2.tar.gz', 'description': "OpenRelease is a Python module which automates the packaging, release and announcement of Open Source software.

'''release_data(package_name, version)''' Retrieve metadata describing a specific package release. Returns a dict with keys for: |
| Line 55: | Line 29: |
| All keys are required. Missing values are given as 'UNKNOWN'. | * name * version * stable_version * author * author_email * maintainer * maintainer_email * home_page * license * summary * description * keywords * platform * download_url * classifiers (list of classifier strings) |
| Line 57: | Line 45: |
| search(field_specifiers, [operator='and']): field_specifiers is a dictionary of {fieldname: searchvalue}. Returns a list like [(name, version)] of matching non-hidden records. The search values are case-insensitive and match any substring. The second argument indicates if all the field specifiers are ANDed or ORed together. The value defaults to 'and' and is case-insensitive. |
'''search(spec[, operator])''' Search the package database using the indicated search spec. The spec may include any of the keywords described in the above list (except 'stable_version' and 'classifiers'), for example: {'description': 'spam'} will search description fields. Within the spec, a field's value can be a string or a list of strings (the values within the list are combined with an OR), for example: {'name': ['foo', 'bar']}. Arguments for different fields are combined using either "and" (the default) or "or". Example: search({'name': 'foo', 'description': 'bar'}, 'or'). The results are returned as a list of dicts {'name': package name, 'version': package release version, 'summary': package release summary} '''changelog(since)''' Retrieve a list of four-tuples (name, version, timestamp, action) since the given timestamp. All timestamps are UTC values. The argument is a UTC integer seconds since the epoch. |
PyPI's XML-RPC methods
Example usage:
>>> import xmlrpclib
>>> server = xmlrpclib.Server('http://pypi.python.org/pypi')
>>> server.package_releases('roundup')
['1.1.2']
>>> server.package_urls('roundup', '1.1.2')
[{'url':
'http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/r/roundup/roundup-1.1.2.tar.gz',
'packagetype': 'sdist'}, {'url':
'http://pypi.python.org/packages/any/r/roundup/roundup-1.1.2.win32.exe',
'packagetype': 'bdist_wininst'}]list_packages()
- Retrieve a list of the package names registered with the package index. Returns a list of name strings.
package_releases(package name)
- Retrieve a list of the releases registered for the given package name. Returns a list of version strings.
release_urls(package_name, version)
- Retrieve a list of download URLs for the given package release. Returns a list of dicts {'url': the url, 'packagetype': the download package type} where the packagetype is one of the setup.py package types ('sdist', 'bdist', etc).
release_data(package_name, version)
- Retrieve metadata describing a specific package release. Returns a dict with keys for:
- name
- version
- stable_version
- author
- author_email
- maintainer
- maintainer_email
- home_page
- license
- summary
- description
- keywords

- download_url
- classifiers (list of classifier strings)
search(spec[, operator])
- Search the package database using the indicated search spec.
- The spec may include any of the keywords described in the above list (except 'stable_version' and 'classifiers'), for example: {'description': 'spam'} will search description fields. Within the spec, a field's value can be a string or a list of strings (the values within the list are combined with an OR), for example: {'name': ['foo', 'bar']}.
