pkg-info.el

License GPL 3 Build Status

Provide information about Emacs packages.

Installation

From MELPA with M-x package-install RET pkg-info.

In your Cask file:

(source melpa)

(depends-on "pkg-info")

This library is compatible with GNU Emacs 24.1 and newer. It will probably work with Emacs 23 as well, if package.el is installed, but it is not tested on Emacs 23 anymore.

Functions

This library defines the following functions for use in your Emacs extensions:

  • pkg-info-library-original-version extracts the original version from the header of a library.
  • pkg-info-library-version extracts the version from the header of a library.
  • pkg-info-defining-library-version extracts the version from the header of a library defining a function.
  • pkg-info-defining-library-original-version extracts the original version from the header of a library defining a function.
  • pkg-info-package-version gets the version of an installed package.
  • pkg-info-format-version formats a version as human readable string.
  • pkg-info-get-melpa-recipe gets the MELPA recipe for a package.
  • pkg-info-wiki-package-p determines whether a package was build from EmacsWiki on MELPA.

All of these functions are interactive commands as well.

A version is the version from the Library Headers, i.e. either from the Version or from the Package-Version headers. An original version is the version from the X-Original-Version header added by MELPA_ to preserve upstream versions.

Versions are represented as version lists, as returned by version-to-list.
