macholib.framework — Generic framework path manipulation

This module defines a function framework_info() that can extract useful information from the name of a dynamic library in a framework.

macholib.framework.framework_info(filename)

A framework name can take one of the following four forms:

• Location/Name.framework/Versions/SomeVersion/Name_Suffix
• Location/Name.framework/Versions/SomeVersion/Name
• Location/Name.framework/Name_Suffix
• Location/Name.framework/Name

Returns None if not found, or a mapping equivalent to:

dict(
    location='Location',
    name='Name.framework/Versions/SomeVersion/Name_Suffix',
    shortname='Name',
    version='SomeVersion',
    suffix='Suffix',
)

Note

SomeVersion and Suffix are optional and may be None if not present.
