💅 GIT-PKGS(1) — the git-pkgs-urls page, bestie edition 🎀

okay so real quick — this whole thing lives in the Git Pkgs Manual (that's the GIT-PKGS(1) energy at the top, iykyk), and it's literally the glow-up guide to git-pkgs-urls. let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

git-pkgs-urls — show registry URLs for a package 🦋

🫶 SYNOPSIS 🫶

git-pkgs urls  [flags]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

bestie. this command is the ultimate link dropper 💅 it displays all known URLs for a package — like, every single one:

  • the registry page
  • the download
  • the documentation
  • and the PURL

and you can specify the package two ways, periodt:

  • as a PURL (like pkg:cargo/serde@1.0.0), or
  • as a plain package name

when you go the plain-name route, the database gets searched for a matching dependency, and the ecosystem and version are inferred from it. no cap, it just figures it out for you 🧚

Examples: (copy these exactly, they're iconic)

git-pkgs urls pkg:cargo/serde@1.0.0
git-pkgs urls lodash --ecosystem npm
git-pkgs urls pkg:npm/express@4.19.0 --format json

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

  • -e, --ecosystem="" — filter/specify the ecosystem (it's used for name lookups, so this is your bestie when you're out here looking things up by plain name) 🌈
  • -f, --format="text" — the output format: text or json. pick your vibe 💖
  • -h, --help[=false] — help for urls, aka the "wait what does this do again" button 🙈

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

these bad boys come down from the parent commands, so you get them for free, lucky you 💜

  • --color="auto" — when to colorize output: auto, always, never 🎨
  • --include-submodules[=false] — include git submodules when scanning for manifests 🔥
  • -p, --pager[=false] — use the pager for output 📜
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — suppress non-essential output, for when you want the quiet luxury version 🤫
