autoupgrade-ng 0.3.0

Description:

autoupgradeng 0.3.0

Quick Start
from autoupgrade import Package
Package(<packagename>).smartupgrade()
Example:
from autoupgrade import Package
Package('pip').smartupgrade()
The above will upgrade the Python package pip only if there is a new version
available on the PyPI.
The upgrade will be unattended and the python script will be restarted.
Old methods are still supported; you can accomplish the same task calling:
from autoupgrade import AutoUpgrade
AutoUpgrade('pip').upgrade_if_needed()


Installation
pip install autoupgrade-ng
All the modules will be installed under the autoupgrade package, so make
sure you have already removed the old AutoUpgrade package
(https://pypi.python.org/pypi/autoupgrade) before install this to avoid an
installation conflict.
