About

Collects metadata for Python packages from the official public PyPI JSON API (pypi.org/pypi/<package>/json) and download counts from the public pypistats.org API — no key required, no HTML scraping.

For each package you get the latest version, summary, author/maintainer, license, homepage & project URLs (docs, source, issues…), Python version requirement, dependency list, classifiers, wheel availability, release file sizes, total release count, first/latest release dates, known vulnerabilities for the latest version, and daily/weekly/monthly download numbers.

Input

`packages`* array	PyPI package names, one per line (case/underscore insensitive).
`includeDownloads` boolean	Fetch day/week/month download counts from pypistats.org (one extra request per package).(default: true)

{
  "packages": [
    "requests",
    "numpy",
    "flask"
  ],
  "includeDownloads": true
}
