A script to show details of any python package, irrespective of whether its installed or not.
I came across the need today to show details about a random PyPi package which wasn't installed on my machine yet. So I simply did pip show <package_name>
but it didn't return anything. pip
has also removed the --no-install
option for simulating an install through which I could have known these details too. So I wrote this little script to show the details of any package even if it isn't installed on your machine.
