GitHub | PyPI | Documentation | Issues | Changelog
pypi-simple is a client library for the Python Simple Repository API as
specified in PEP 503 and updated by PEP 592 and PEP 629. With it, you
can query the Python Package Index (PyPI) and other pip-compatible repositories for a list of their available
projects and lists of each project’s available package files. The library also
allows you to query package files for their project version, package type, file
digests, requires_python string, and PGP signature URL.
Installation¶

pypi-simple and its dependencies:
python3 -m pip install pypi-simple
