在看了一段时间pip的代码之后，负责定位包的代码似乎可以在pip.index中的PackageFinder类中找到。它的方法find_requirement查找InstallRequirement的版本，但不幸的是只返回最新的版本。

下面的代码几乎是原始函数的1:1副本，只是第114行中的返回值更改为返回所有版本。

脚本期望一个包名作为第一个也是唯一的参数，并返回所有版本。

我不能保证正确，因为我不熟悉pip的代码。但希望这能帮到你。

pypi版本包出色地完成了以下工作:

$ pip3 install pip-versions

$ pip-versions latest rsyncy
0.0.4

$ pip-versions list rsyncy
0.0.1
0.0.2
0.0.3
0.0.4

这甚至可以在Nexus (sonatype)代理后面工作!

我的项目卢德特就有这个特点。

使用示例:

>>> import luddite
>>> luddite.get_versions_pypi("python-dateutil")
('0.1', '0.3', '0.4', '0.5', '1.0', '1.1', '1.2', '1.4', '1.4.1', '1.5', '2.0', '2.1', '2.2', '2.3', '2.4.0', '2.4.1', '2.4.2', '2.5.0', '2.5.1', '2.5.2', '2.5.3', '2.6.0', '2.6.1', '2.7.0', '2.7.1', '2.7.2', '2.7.3', '2.7.4', '2.7.5', '2.8.0')

它通过查询https://pypi.org/的JSON API列出了一个包的所有可用版本

更新: 截至2017年9月，这种方法不再有效:——no-install在pip 7中被删除

使用pip install -v，你可以看到所有可用的版本

使用pip 1.0进行测试

root@node7:~# pip --version
pip 1.0 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)

pypi-has() { set -o pipefail; curl -sfL https://pypi.org/pypi/$1/json | jq -e --arg v $2 'any( .releases | keys[]; . == $v )'; }

用法:

$ pypi-has django 4.0x ; echo $?
false
1

$ pypi-has djangos 4.0x ; echo $?
22

$ pypi-has djangos 4.0 ; echo $?
22

$ pypi-has django 4.0 ; echo $?
true
0

对于pip >= 21.2使用:

pip index versions pylibmc

注意，这个命令是实验性的，将来可能会改变!

对于pip >= 21.1使用:

pip install pylibmc==

对于pip >= 20.3使用:

pip install --use-deprecated=legacy-resolver pylibmc==

对于pip >= 9.0使用:

$ pip install pylibmc==
Collecting pylibmc==
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pylibmc== (from 
  versions: 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5.1, 0.5.2, 0.5.3, 0.5.4, 0.5.5, 0.5, 0.6.1, 0.6,

No matching distribution found for pylibmc==

可用的版本将在不实际下载或安装任何软件包的情况下打印出来。

对于pip < 9.0使用:

pip install pylibmc==blork

其中，block可以是任何不是有效版本号的字符串。
