Hyperlink projects to PyPI #2

Closed brettcannon closed 10 years ago

brettcannon commented 10 years ago

Not looking for it to look like a hyperlink per-se, but it would be handy to be able to jump to the project page.

The issue is that there is some heavy normalization happening in distlib (I think) with regard to the project name. Or maybe it's in ciupy3? In any case, I'm currently setting up a mirror of distlib's source site of dependency information (with Vinay's approval) to be able to easier fetch the project data from a local JSON file (http://www.red-dove.com/pypi/projects/). With that information I could easily show the real PyPI URL.

I know there's at least lowercasing on my end to make set usage feasible. But PyPI is actually case-insensitive and will redirect to the case-correct URL so that won't affect anything.
