Research direction

Start with README and pyproject.toml, then compare the declared Python-version metadata with the Shields.io URL for databricks-sql-connector. Verify whether the badge resolves from the package metadata on live PyPI, and consider the work done when the README displays the supported Python versions without publishing unnecessary no-op releases.

Description

[Written by @susodapop]

Shields.io has a badge for supported python versions. It should work for this repository, but doesn't:

https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/databricks-sql-connector

This probably requires a change to our pyproject.toml. This could take some trial-and-error since Shields.io pulls only from live PyPi. I don't want to push a bunch of no-op versions to Pypi just to make this badge work.
