lip pkg view

Shows the package file (lip.toml) of a package and the versions of its repository.

Synopsis

lip pkg view <PACKAGE>

Arguments

Argument	Description
`<PACKAGE>`	The package to view, in the same forms as for `lip install`, e.g. `<path>`, `<path>@<version>`, `<path>@branch:<branch>`, `./package.zip`, `./MyTool` or an `https://` URL.

Description

Prints, as JSON, an object with two members:

json

{ "manifest": { ... }, "versions": ["<version>", ...] }

manifest: The lip.toml at the root of the archive the argument names, with its templates rendered. For a remote repository, the archive is the repository at the newest version tag, at the tag of the given version with @<version>, or at the commit of a git ref. A local ZIP file or directory, or a URL, is read as it is. If that archive cannot be obtained or is not a package, the command fails.
versions: For a remote repository, its versions: the tags named exactly v<SemVer 2.0.0> (e.g. v1.2.3), without the leading v, lowest first. Tags such as v1.2 are not versions. The variant and the git ref of the argument do not change the list. For a URL or a local path, an empty array.

A tooth.json of an earlier format is shown as the package file lip reads from it for the environment of every workspace: the side server and the platform win-x64.

The output is always JSON; there is no --json option. The command changes nothing.
