Read and show PyPI Classifieres

[loechel]

The Plone Python 3 Version Support Status page did have a few nice ideas http://jenkins.plone.org/py3/ that could be also used in plone.versioncheck

• Reading PyPI Classifieres (https://pypi.python.org/pypi?%3Aaction=list_classifiers) to show data:
  • supported Python Versions
  • supported Python Implementations (CPython, PyPy, Pyston, Stackless, Jython)
  • supported Plone Versions
  • Development Status
• Dependency Graphs (Core, Extras, Reverse) --> Graphiz --> SVG / PNG output
• Travis-CI build status (master / primary branch)

@jensens any feedback welcome to this ideas

classifiers

yes, this could be of interest. but it gets complex to call versioncheck, we should think about a config file. I think if this is implemented, it should have a generic configurable filter/grouping for troove classifiers.

dependency graphs

CI build status

well, I am not sure if this is a real value. if it would be the exact build status of the released package, information could be of some value. But if its master...

Also, this should be not Travis alone, but generic for all CI popular CI systems. IMO too much and so -1

further ideas

I think it is of value to track the sources and sources override of mr.developer. Like if in a project a branch is used, while upstream master or a release series branch was used.
