Summary

-------

Yolk is a Python tool for obtaining information about installed Python packages

and querying packages available on PyPI (Python Package Index). ``yolk3k``

is a fork of the original ``yolk``. ``yolk3k`` add Python 3 support (while

maintaining Python 2 support). It also adds additional features.

You can see which packages are active, non-active or in development mode and

show you which have newer versions available by querying PyPI.

Usage Examples::

    $ yolk --upgrade

        Upgrade all packages

    $ yolk --upgrade --user

        Upgrade user packages

    $ yolk -l

        List all installed Python packages

    $ yolk -a

        List only the activated packages installed (Activated packages are

        normal packages on sys.path you can import)

    $ yolk -n

        List only the non-activated (--multi-version) packages installed

    $ yolk -l -f License,Author nose==1.0

        Show the license and author for version 1.0 of the package `nose`

    $ yolk --entry-map nose

        Show entry map for the nose package

    $ yolk --entry-points nose.plugins

        Show all setuptools entry points for nose.plugins

These options query PyPI::

    $ yolk -U pkg_name

        Shows if an update for pkg_name is available by querying PyPI

    $ yolk -U

         Checks PyPI to see if any installed Python packages have updates

         available.

    $ yolk -F Paste

        Download source tarball for latest version of Paste to your current

        directory

    $ yolk -F Paste -T svn

        your current directory.

    $ yolk -L 2

    $ yolk -C 2

    $ yolk -M Paste

        Show all the metadata for the latest version of Paste listed on PyPI

    $ yolk -D cheesecake

        packages
