Detailed Description

Represents a wheel distribution.

This does not need any preparation as wheels can be directly unpacked.

Member Function Documentation

get_metadata_distribution()

BaseDistribution get_metadata_distribution

(

self

)

Loads the metadata from the wheel file into memory and returns a
Distribution that uses it, not relying on the wheel file or
requirement.

Reimplemented from AbstractDistribution.
