NAME
pkginfo - print metadata for one or more Python package distributions
SYNOPSIS
pkginfo [options] path ...
DESCRIPTION
Print the metadata for one or more Python package distributions.
Each ’path’ entry can be one of the following:
- a source
distribution: in this case, ’path’ should point
to an existing
archive file (.tar.gz, .tar.bz2, or .zip) as generated by
’setup.py sdist’.
- a binary
distribution: in this case, ’path’ should point
to an existing
archive file (.egg)
- a
"develop" checkout: in this case,
’path’ should point to a directory
initialized via ’setup.py develop’ (under
setuptools).
- an installed
package: in this case, ’path’ should be the
importable name of
the package.
