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, PEP 629, and PEP 658.
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, PGP signature URL, and
metadata URL.

requires Python 3.6 or higher. Just use pip for Python 3 (You have pip, right?) to install

and its dependencies:
