pip show does not show Summary, Home-Page, Author and License

This question is for the WolfgangFahl/py-3rdparty-mediawiki#92 for which https://github.com/WolfgangFahl/py-3rdparty-mediawiki/blob/master/pyproject.toml was created as shown below. The Summary, Home-Page, Author and License entries in pip show are empty for pip 22.1.2. as shown below.

How can the entries be made visible/configured?

i was able to fix the description problem myself by removing "description" from the dynamic part and explicitly entering it.

For the other three fields i didn't find a proper answer in https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/declaring-project-metadata/#declaring-project-metadata

Solution

I ran across the same problems as you did and the links provided in the comments under your question helped a lot, but I think it'll still be better to summarize everything in a separate comment.

For the authors the rules are the following:

If only name is provided, the value goes in Author or Maintainer as appropriate.
If only email is provided, the value goes in Author-email or Maintainer-email as appropriate.
If both email and name are provided, the value goes in Author-email or Maintainer-email as appropriate, with the format {name} <{email}>.

So if you want the author and email be on separate fields, you can specify it as follows:

authors = [
  { name="YOUR_NAME"},
  { email="YOUR@E.MAIL" },
]

License must be specified in the following way:

license = {text = "YOUR_LICENSE"}

Summary is under the description entry:

description = "YOUR_DESCRIPTION"

Home-page can be filled by creating a separate file setup.cfg with the following contents:

[metadata]
url = https://github.com/YOUR_URL
