pkginfo2 README

This package provides an API for querying the distutils metadata written in the PKG-INFO file inside a source distriubtion (an sdist) or a binary distribution or a wheel (e.g., created by running bdist_egg). It can also query the EGG-INFO directory of an installed distribution, and the *.egg-info stored in a "development checkout" (e.g, created by running setup.py develop), or the *.dist-info from an as-installed package.

This is a fork of http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~tseaver/pkginfo removing the ability to import and eval arbitrary code and work with modules known to the current interpreter. Use importlib_metadata for this if you need it.

Please see the pkginfo2 repo at for more documentation.
