pip-show-json 1.0.3
Show JSON metadata for an uninstalled pip package
License: MIT

# pip-show-json
Show JSON metadata about an uninstalled pip package like `apt-get show`.

# Motivation
It is useful to display information about a package which is not yet installed.
This command line utility does this and documents how to do this so that it is easily discoverable

This is basically a wrapper around `curl https://pypi.org/pypi/$PACKAGE/json` which will show you metadata about a package but it is easy to discover and listed in pypi.


# Usage and Installation
```
pipx install pip-show-json
pip-show-json django
```
