Description
Verification
- This issue's title and/or description do not reference a single formula e.g.
brew install wget
. If they do, open an issue at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/new/choose instead.
Provide a detailed description of the proposed feature
pypi_formula_mappings.json
lives in the root of Homebrew/core and is currently just over 1100 lines. Contributors are often unaware of this file and maintainers usually have to push changes to it ourselves in their PR's. It would be a lot cleaner to have this logic stored on a per-formula basis rather than referencing an external file.
What is the motivation for the feature?
Reducing complexity of formulae by having PyPI mappings within the formulae files themselves.
How will the feature be relevant to at least 90% of Homebrew users?
Contributing/maintaining Python formulae will become easier since everything is self-contained. Also reduces the instances of merge conflicts when multiple PR's change pypi_formula_mappings.json
.
What alternatives to the feature have been considered?
Status quo.
