Pipx: Equivalent to pip show

[rugk]

How would this feature be useful?
I want to show information about a package, e.g. the installed version, dependencies etc.

Describe the solution you'd like
Just like the original pip, pip show should be there, but that command does not exist, appearently.

See https://stackoverflow.com/q/10214827/5008962

Describe alternatives you've considered

Dunno, how do I show the installed version of a package then??

• Also list behaves differently than in pip, so I also cannot list the version there. (it seems to show me no libs)
• Aaand, show the version number with list, even if I inject a package, I have no clue what version it installed…

I’d rather this feature is not duplicated in pipx, personally. Just use pipx runpip for this.

Version numbers for the main package are currently displayed with pipx list.

Version numbers for injected packages with pipx list --include-injected are in the development version of pipx and will be in the next release.

$ pipx runpip <pipx-venv-name> show <specific-package>

Closing, use runpip with show.
