Local PyPi Package Name Cache

Project description

# pip-cache

A simple script that allows prefix-based searching of a locally cached copy of all available PyPi packages, a la apt-cache pkgnames. The cache is created and updated manually by calling pip-cache update, in the spirit of apt-get update.

The cache is stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/pip-cache/all-packages.txt, where $XDG_DATA_HOME is usually ~/.local/share on Linux systems.

Used in [pip-bash-completion](https://github.com/brunobeltran/pip-bash-completion).
