Description
We should add extra documentation to each package class, possibly structured as attributes in order to better capture the breadth and depth of the data we collect to generate a summary table for all the things we have.
This could include new things:
- logos
- if a data file is a lock file or not
- extra support and capabilities in other tools like binary analysis, inspectors such as dependency-inspector
- core command(s) to generate lock file or install packages in dependency-inspector
- pointer to the main package management tool repo
- typical files extensions included (.py in pypi, and so on)
- extra documentation
- etc.
Beyond mere documentation, some of these attributes may have a practical use (like the command for dependency-inspector)
We should also track the relationship to other data files and manifests (important so we cant start treating these as pairs or groups). This could be an attribute, or a new class of its own that groups many datafile handler classes.
