I need to find out some specific metainformation like hash, license, author for a specific version of a package without downloading it. I already found out about the existence of a web api but dont know how to really use it. If I query something like this: https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/FindPackagesById()?id='package.name.here' I get a large xml document conatining many information which is nice. Is there a way to further tailor my query to only send me the metainformation which i really need?
