Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: > That's almost what the PEP says, or at least what I understand of it. I’ve probably misused “not quite”; I meant “not exactly”. Allow me to try to translate the PEP text to pseudo-code:
> Platform (multiple use) > A Platform specification describing an operating system supported by > the distribution which is not listed in the "Operating System" Trove > classifiers. if 'platform' in meta: if 'Operating System' in meta['classifiers']: warnings.append('the "platform" keyword duplicates the "Platform" classifier') else: warnings.append('using a "platform" keyword instead of a classifier, please make sure there is no classifier for this platform') > License (optional) > Text indicating the license covering the distribution where the > license is not a selection from the "License" Trove classifiers. See > "Classifier" below. This field may also be used to specify a > particular version of a licencse which is named via the Classifier > field, or to indicate a variation or exception to such a license. if 'license' in meta: if 'License' in meta['classifiers']: warnings.append('using a "license" keyword with a "License" classifier, please make sure the keyword does not duplicate the classifier but precises it') else: warnings.append('using a "license" keyword instead of a classifier, please make sure there is no classifier for this license') My pseudo-code assumes that meta['classifiers'].__contains__ can get all matching classifiers (for example all classifiers of the 'Operating System' category), not just perform exact matching against a list of strings. I’ve just sent a message to the fellowship ML to brainstorm about a better data structure to model and work with classifiers; if we reach agreement, I’ll open another bug about that and make this one depend on the other. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11219> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
