Where can I find an official source for one-liner command line tools available through pip install?


More specifically, I have been using speedtest-cli in Windows PowerShell. I was able to get this tool by using "pip install speedtest-cli". This tool tests my upload and download speed simply by entering "speedtest-cli" in PowerShell. Is there an official repository with similar one-liner command line tools akin to "speedtest-cli"? If so, where?

I am using the following Python and Pip versions:

Python 3.7.2

pip 18.1


Solution

  • When you pip install a package, you're getting it by default from PyPI. So searching for speedtest-cli pypi will quickly lead you here:

    https://pypi.org/project/speedtest-cli/

    For Python-specific tools, many are listed in the Awesome-Python library.
