Direct URLs

Parse and validate direct_url.json files.

Usage

import json
from pathlib import Path

from packaging.direct_url import ArchiveInfo, DirectUrl, DirInfo, VcsInfo

# A VCS direct URL
vcs_direct_url = DirectUrl(
    url="https://git.example.com/repo.git",
    vcs_info=VcsInfo(
        vcs="git",
        commit_id="2df7bdd8dfef7b879390b9fc4016f02af2f118d4",
        requested_revision="1.1.0",
    ),
)

# An archive direct URL
archive_direct_url = DirectUrl(
    url="https://example.com/archive.tar.gz",
    archive_info=ArchiveInfo(
        hashes={
            "sha256": "dc321a1c18a37b5438424ef3714524229dab5f4f78b297671359426fef51be6c"
        }
    ),
)

# A local editable direct URL
archive_direct_url = DirectUrl(
    url="file:///home/project/example",
    dir_info=DirInfo(
        editable=True,
    ),
)

# Serialization to JSON
Path("/tmp/direct_url.json").write_text(
    json.dumps(vcs_direct_url.to_dict()), encoding="utf-8"
)

# Load from JSON. The resulting DirectUrl object is validated against the
# specification, else a DirectUrlalidationError is raised
direct_url = DirectUrl.from_dict(
    json.loads(Path("/tmp/direct_url.json").read_text(encoding="utf-8"))
)

# You can validate a manually constructed DirectUrl class
vcs_direct_url.validate()
