importlib-metadata

importlib-metadata provides third-party access to the functionality of the stdlib importlib.metadata module, including features backported from future Python versions. It allows reading installed package metadata such as version strings, entry points, file lists, and requirements. Current version is 9.0.0 (requires Python >=3.10). New features are introduced here first and later merged into CPython; releases track CPython closely with frequent minor/patch releases.
