Using importlib.metadata
importlib.metadata
is a library that provides for access to installed package metadata. Built in part on Python’s import system, this library intends to replace similar functionality in the entry point API
and metadata API
of pkg_resources
. Along with
in Python 3.7 and newer (backported as importlib.resources
importlib_resources
for older versions of Python), this can eliminate the need to use the older and less efficient pkg_resources
package.
