Metadata from pypi, or internal

Open broeder-j opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Just an idea:

Pypi has an API for the basic metadata, for example see: https://pypi.org/pypi/codemetapy/json

one could use that as a backup if the parsing directly fails... (through then there is probably also nothing on pypi).

You use the orginal metadata parser from pkg and importlib_metadata, right?

One could also request the metadata for each python dependency that way to fill from that the metadata of the dependencies required for codemeta, or parse the metadata from the dependencies (which would only work if installed or?).
