It works both as a command-line tool (invoked via `depinfo package-name`) and as a Python library through its DisplayApplication class. The tool is designed for developers who need to quickly inspect what a package depends on without diving into metadata files or package managers.\n\nThe package has a single runtime dependency on importlib-metadata and supports Python 3.7 through 3.11. It can output results in plain text or markdown format, making it useful for documentation or quick audits of package dependencies. With no known vulnerabilities and permissive licensing, it is straightforward to integrate into development workflows or CI/CD pipelines.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need a simple, lightweight way to inspect package dependencies. The low install friction and permissive license make it easy to add to any project. However, be aware that the package has not been actively maintained since 2022\u2014it works well for its narrow purpose but may not receive updates for future Python or ecosystem changes. Consider it a stable utility rather than an actively developed tool."},"id":"depinfo","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/depinfo","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/depinfo.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/depinfo/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-09-07","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"depinfo","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"List any package's direct dependencies and their versions."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":81059,"position":14253,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.2.0"}
