Please feel free to check it out, most of this information we can get from pypi 
itself via its apis.

Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] Storing license information in 
openstack/requirements


Should we store licensing information as a comment in the
*-requirements files ? Can it be stored on the same line ? Something
like:
oslo.messaging>=1.3.0a4  # Apache-2.0

Since it's licenses we're tracking shouldn't we be tracking indirect
dependencies too (i.e. packages pulled in by required packages)? And if
we want to do that then the method above won't be sufficient.

And, of course, we want an automated way of generating this info -
dependencies (can) change from version to version. Do we have such a
tool?

Hi everyone,
A year ago there was a discussion about doing a license inventory on
OpenStack dependencies, to check that they are compatible with our own
license and make sure any addition gets a proper license check.
Back then I proposed to leverage the openstack/requirements repository
to store that information, but that repository was still
science-fiction at that time. Now that it's complete and functional,
I guess it's time to revisit the idea.
