[Python-ideas] "import me" to display some summary of the current python installation

[Wes Turner]

Steven,

I had intended to answer the question. If I did not answer this question, I
must have misunderstood the question.

> Never mind. site._script() as pointed out by Wes Turner is what I need:

These commands could also be helpful for the inferred use case:


  $(which pip) --version
  $(which python) -m pip freeze
  python -m pip freeze --user
  python -m pip freeze --l
  python -m pip freeze -r ./requirements.txt

  conda --version
  conda config --show
  conda env export # .yaml

  dotfiles_status()   # westurner/dotfiles/develop/etc/bash/
05-bashrc.dotfiles.sh
   echo $VIRTUAL_ENV
   echo $CONDA_ENVS_PATH $WORKON_HOME

In terms of printing the actual versions of {Python, pkgs, }
for reproducibility,
for Jupyter Notebook, there's:

a %version_information magic command extension:
https://github.com/jrjohansson/version_information/blob/master/version_information/version_information.py

and also %watermark:
https://github.com/rasbt/watermark/blob/master/watermark/watermark.py

A way to print all this environment information from the CLI (as e.g. JSON
and/or YAML) would indeed be useful (e.g. for CI build logs / as a build
artifact).
