nab-index
PyPI Simple-API client and on-disk cache used by
nab-project and
nab.
It provides:
- A small async transport interface with two drop-in backends:
urllib3(default; pulled in by the base install).httpx(extra:nab-index[httpx]).
- A Simple-API client with JSON and HTML decoders.
- A disk cache for project listings and file metadata responses.
- A multi-index router (ordered named indexes plus per-package overrides that pin a package to one index).
- A small VCS clone helper used by the higher-level VCS policy.
When to use it
Use nab-index if you need a typed PyPI Simple-API client with an
on-disk cache. Most users want
nab instead.
The API is currently under rapid experimentation, if you use it pin to an exact version.
