I’m wondering how can I find a package on pypi with filtering by amd/arm processor architecture, let’s say I need to download the .whl file of the numpy package for windows amd64, how can I get a direct link to this .whl file? pip search is not filtered by processor architecture

>Solution :

let’s say I need to download the .whl file of the numpy package for windows amd64, how can I get a direct link to this .whl file?

I’d use the JSON metadata endpoint, e.g. https://pypi.org/pypi/numpy/json, so to print out all windows amd64 cpython 3.11 wheels for numpy:

import httpx

j = httpx.get("https://pypi.org/pypi/numpy/json").json()
for version, releases in sorted(j["releases"].items(), reverse=True):
    for rel in releases:
        if rel["packagetype"] == "bdist_wheel" and rel["filename"].endswith("cp311-win_amd64.whl"):
            print(version, rel["url"])

This prints out e.g. (URLs redacted for brevity)

The filename for wheels is well specified so you should be able to rely on that endswith.
