`par2cmdline-turbo` as Python package #29

Open brenthuisman opened 3 months ago

brenthuisman commented 3 months ago

I wrapped this excellent project up as an installable Python package, so that I can use it as a dependency for par2deep. I hope that's OK, and if you'd like me to merge this back or have the package name that'd be OK. As long as the package can stay ;)

Also, I haven't tested on all platforms. If anyone can confirm all works fine, that'd be great feedback.

seems like its going to get confusing to people by saying your not affiliated with par2cmdline-turbo but named it the same name and having people do $ pip install par2cmdline-turbo

perhaps a name change to avoid the confusion?

brenthuisman commented 3 months ago

O, I thought it makes sense since they're the same binaries. It works (almost) the same for hugo on PyPI. And the AUR package and the proposed Fedore one also have the same name (and any other package too probably).

But if it bothers you and you don't wish to have the package here, sure, I can rename it. What would be not confusing? A totally new name might seem like taking credit for something that is not even related but the same binary.

Maybe I'm missing the point of this, but is this just installing the package? Why would you use this instead of your package manager?

brenthuisman commented 3 months ago

For some situations, pip (or maybe conda) is the package manager. Just like for some it is pacman, dnf, etc.

Never thought of putting it in the pip repo, but if it makes sense to you, I have no qualms about it.

Thanks for the contribution!
