flox show command
NAME
flox-show - show detailed information about a single package
SYNOPSIS
flox [<general-options>] show <pkg-path>
DESCRIPTION
Show detailed information about a single package.
The default output includes the package description, name, and version.
Package names
Packages are organized in a hierarchical structure such that certain
packages are found at the top level (e.g. ripgrep), and other packages
are found under package sets (e.g. python310Packages.pip). We call
this location within the catalog the “pkg-path”.
The pkg-path is searched when you execute a flox search command. The
pkg-path is what’s shown by flox show. Finally, the pkg-path appears
in your manifest after a flox install.
