I first thought jake was some guy.
The mapping from conda package is done as part of the REST API of Sonatype or is there any logic for that in jake
itself. From the README it looks like this is only mapping things back to PyPI (and that would be contrary to your postgres
example above.
For me it is unclear whether we (as conda-forge) can do anything here or whether we need Sonatype to index conda-forge by themselves.
I've started this issue on one of the repos.

it is indeed named after the eminent herpetologists...
We will (soon :crossed_fingers:) have
jake
available fromconda-forge
, which, despite its serpentine branding, appears to also know how to cross-correlate packages inrepo.anaconda.com
(only) to non-python "ecosystems" in their parlance, e.g. postgresql by using their free (as in rate-limited beer) REST API.It would be lovely if we could make this a semi-automated part of the conda-forge process for those of us that are stuck in the i-dotting and t-crossing business.
For example, this could initially become part of the CI-checkable "homework" in the
staged-recipes
pipeline, where we might catch some out-of-date upstreams which might encourage the future feedstock owner to get involved with their (future) supply chain.Some challenges:
anaconda
(not evenr
andmsys2
)npm
but notconda
)POST
, but can be locally cached byjake
... so perhapsstaged-recipes
, at least, do some sort of caching, so we're not pounding them withlibstdc
, etc. requestsAlternatives:
