Is there a way to get the version of a pip installed package through command line?
In the style of
meltano invoke <plugin> --version
p
That suggested command should work - when I run
meltano invoke tap-slack --version
I get:
Copy code
tap-slack v0.1.1, Meltano SDK v0.3.18
Is that what youre looking for? The underlying plugin needs to support the
--version
flag though

Ah that's it; they need to support it natively
Yeah some packages support it and other's don't; I'm trying to debug package version issues with a third party utility, and so I'm trying to get the version of the installed package. Guess I'll have to ask them to introduce the flag

You could always enter the venv thats created for that plugin and do a
pip freeze
. If that helps
Copy code
. .meltano/extractors/tap-slack/venv/bin/activate
pip freeze

Ok awesome, thanks! I'll try that 😄
