fedora-distro-aliases - The easiest way to get numbers of active Fedora releases

[Jakub Kadlcik <jkadlcik@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I just wanted to quickly announce a small project I did in collaboration with the Packit folks.

Do you have some tools or services that perform actions on all currently active Fedora releases? And do you have to manually update their list every time a new Fedora release is branched or EOLed? The fedora-distro-aliases will make your life easier.

https://github.com/rpm-software-management/fedora-distro-aliases

It defines aliases such as `fedora-stable`, `epel-all`, `fedora-latest`, etc. To evaluate them, it queries Bodhi, so they are always up-to-date (but the tradeoff is that it requires an internet connection). There are multiple examples in the project README but the usage is simple, e.g.:

    >>> from fedora_distro_aliases import get_distro_aliases
    >>> aliases = get_distro_aliases()

    >>> [x.namever for x in aliases["fedora-all"]]
    ['fedora-38', 'fedora-39', 'fedora-rawhide']

The package is already in Fedora, give it a shot,

Jakub
