我在哪里可以从 Github 存储库中获取 NPM package 信息？

Question

I want to be able to get a few information about NPM packages in a Javascript based repository on Github.

I want to believe I can see them from the package.json file the repositories.

Please any help or guideline on this?.

I will like to extract the needed information using powershell from the file.

Answer 1

• Determine the URL for the raw content of the package.json file of interest:

  • Eg, for the json5 package , click on the Repository link to go to the associated GitHub repository , navigate to the package.json file and click on the Raw button to get the raw URL .

• Then use Invoke-RestMethod with the raw URL to retrieve and parse the content of the package's package.json file:

PS> Invoke-RestMethod https://raw.githubusercontent.com/json5/json5/master/package.json
