cabal: Show information about a package.
$ cabal info ${package_name}
try on your machine
The command "cabal info ${package_name}" is used in the Cabal build system, which is a package manager for Haskell programming language.
Here, "${package_name}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the package you want to get information about.
When you run this command, Cabal will provide information about the specified package. This includes details such as the package name, version number, license, dependencies, and other metadata.
This command is useful for developers who want to gather information about a particular Haskell package before using it in their projects. It helps them understand the dependencies and other requirements of the package and make informed decisions about its usage in their codebase.
