get_packages

✓ from pypi import get_packages

Initialize PyPI client and fetch packages.

from pypi import PyPI client = PyPI() # List all packages (takes time) # packages = client.get_packages() # For single package info, use pip or requests instead.

affects: all

gotchaThe package may not support PEP 503 (Simple Repository API) and relies on old XML-RPC API (deprecated).
