196 add-ons on front page #165

Closed tkimnguyen closed 3 years ago

tkimnguyen commented 8 years ago

Get a better, defensible number up there :)

gforcada commented 8 years ago

Someone added that number already

tkimnguyen commented 8 years ago

@gforcada where did the 196 come from? That was my point.

gforcada commented 8 years ago

@tkimnguyen oh, sorry I got you totally wrong then, reopening.

It seems static, even for Plone 5.1 there are over 300 add-on's. We should fix that.

tkimnguyen commented 5 years ago

It is static. What's the number you think it should be changed to?

MrTango commented 5 years ago

the best would be to get the number for 5.0 from pypi, thats the closest to reality. Of course there are core packages included which we should count, but there are also packages missing for sure, so something above 300 makes sense. But I still think, we really need a list, like we had on plone.org. The best would be a combination of pypi infos and additional data like a rating, which we don't have on pypi.

We could read all Plone packages from PyPi, show them and allow users to complete the data in wiki style. We have already a github login, so it's not to hard to contribute then.

There a lot of possibilities that could be done and there are also things that then rot due to increased moderation and maintenance burden.

Something like some JS on the front page that queries pypi by classifier and gets a number should be low maintenance. If you could exclude the core packages. I don’t think pypi supports excluding certain trove classifiers so I don’t think there is a practical way to exclude listing core packages other than just counting them manually.

Measuring popularity by voting hasn’t resulted in great results in the past particularly as it gets out of date.

@MrTango (hehe, "Mr. T.") I would prefer a simple answer, because then it'll get done. Updating it occasionally by hand is ok. Unless we can find someone who wants to craft a robust solution that works automatically...

rioksane commented 3 years ago

I update the number to 319, as the number of Plone 5.2 packages is pypi. Its probably better that the old number 196 that has been there for four years.

Plone.org will be renewed this year. In the new version, the data needs to update automatically or be not visible at all.

MrTango commented 3 years ago

You can now use a flag "addon" to filter for only addon, not core packages. This might be not the real number, because people need to update there classifiers, but it's getting there.
