I would like to add basic documentation content to the front page of PYPI of my module like it's done, for example, here: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Jinja2.
Right now the askbot download page has a default look and does not have much useful info, how can it be added? That is - which parts of the distribution package files/which file must be edited?
Thanks!
The setup.py and setup. cfg are the default packaging tools within PyPI, setuptools, pip, and the standard python library. Here, they represent the configuration and build scripts for setuptools. They both tell the setuptools how the package can be built and installed.
PyPI primarily hosts Python packages in the form of archives called sdists (source distributions) or precompiled "wheels." PyPI as an index allows users to search for packages by keywords or by filters against their metadata, such as free software license or compatibility with POSIX.
Did you take a look at : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/an_example_pypi_project
Also PyPI attempts to parse the "long_description" from your meta-data as ReStructuredText. You could use that to provide a good information rendering.
