πŸ’– PIP-SHOW(1) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the pip manual, section 1 β€” this is the page for pip-show, and trust, it's a lil cutie with a big job πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

pip-show β€” the lowdown on the pip show command, fr fr πŸ‘‘


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

It shows you the tea on one or more installed packages. That's it, that's the whole vibe. πŸ’…

And the output? It's giving RFC-compliant mail header format. Not a cute little table, not a vibe-y list β€” actual mail headers, like it's writing you a letter. Iconic, honestly. ✨


πŸ¦‹ USAGE πŸ¦‹

python -m pip show [options] <package> ...

so you run it, you hand it some <package> names (as many as you want, the ... said so πŸ’€), and it spills. 🫢


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

  • -f, --files β€” shows the full list of installed files for each package. Like, every single file. All of them. She's thorough. πŸ—‚οΈβœ¨
heads up bestie: this one's got an environment variable β€” PIP_FILES πŸ“

🌈 Author 🌈

pip developers β€” the whole squad, not just one main character. πŸ‘‘


The pip developers β€” yes, all of them, the entire group chat holds the copyright. 🫢


that's the page, bestie β€” go forth and pip show something πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ
