libfoot

a tool for analyzing the footprint of a Python package, written in Rust with python bindings via pyo3

installation

Add libfoot to your project:

uv add libfoot

usage

if you have uv installed, you don't need a static installation of libfoot:

uvx libfoot analyze pydantic -v 2.11.1

CLI

libfoot provides a command-line interface for easy access to its functionality:

# analyze a package
libfoot analyze requests

# specify a version
libfoot analyze requests -v 2.31.0 

# get package metadata
libfoot metadata requests

# output in JSON format
libfoot analyze requests --json

python interface

from libfoot import analyze_package, get_pypi_metadata

# analyze a package
result = analyze_package("requests", "2.31.0")
print(f"Total size: {result['total_size']} bytes")
print(f"File count: {result['file_count']}")

# get package metadata
metadata = get_pypi_metadata("requests", "2.31.0")
print(f"Summary: {metadata['summary']}")

development

To build from source:

git clone https://github.com/zzstoatzz/libfoot
cd libfoot
uv sync

I use just as a command runner:

# build the project
just build

# run tests (builds beforehand automatically)
just test

# typecheck the project
just typecheck

# run the demo
just demo
