# PyPi Notifier
|
|
|
|
:rocket:

|
|
|
Problem: No way to get updates when any package I am using has a new release.
|
|
|
|
Solution:
|
|
|
|
- Sends an email when a package you are watching updates
|
|
- Get starred package list from github
|
|
- Webhooks are not possible
|
|
- PyPi -> GitHub mapping is impossible to maintain
|
|
- Parse PyPi RSS Feed
|
|
- Get list of packages updated and mail people
|
|
- Maybe parse package name from setup.py
|
|
- Allow uploading requirements.txt as well perhaps.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Sources
|
|
|
|
Once it has your GitHub credentials:
|
|
|
|
- Starred github repos that are also on PyPi
|
|
- packages menetioned in setup.py and requirements.txt files from my own projects
|
|
- Allow someone to upload a requirements.txt and use that as source
|
|
- Parse the PyPi RSS Feed to get complete updates
|
|
|
|
All the sources are merged together.
|
|
|
|
## Notifications
|
|
|
|
- Maybe have a curated twitter account that tweets about releases for the top 10%
|
|
packages.
|
|
- Create a personal RSS feed for every user
|
|
- Send out emails (configurable) for every release.
|
|
- Optional direct tweets as well?
