Canonical source for classifiers on PyPI.

Classifiers categorize projects per PEP 301. Use this package to validate classifiers in packages for PyPI upload or download.

To install from PyPI:

$ pip install trove-classifiers 

This package can be invoked as a module to print a list of classifiers:

$ python -m trove_classifiers | grep -Ei pyramid Framework :: Pyramid 

In addition, this package's API is two importable objects:

A set containing classifiers (as strings). Useful for determining membership.

Example - determine if a classifier is valid:

>>> from trove_classifiers import classifiers >>> 'License :: OSI Approved' in classifiers True >>> 'Fuzzy :: Wuzzy :: Was :: A :: Bear' in classifiers False >>>

A dict, mapping a deprecated classifier (string) to a list of classifiers which replaces it (strings).

Example - determine if a classifier is deprecated:

>>> from trove_classifiers import deprecated_classifiers >>> 'License :: OSI Approved' in deprecated_classifiers False >>> 'Natural Language :: Ukranian' in deprecated_classifiers True >>> deprecated_classifiers["Natural Language :: Ukranian"] ['Natural Language :: Ukrainian']
