Can Anaconda tell you Conda-Forge url of an installed package?

Question

I’m trying to build a dependency tree for a series of python package installs, and I’d like to include the conda-forge url for each package.

Is there a way to find the url of an installed package using the command line interface?

Not specific to Conda Forge, but yes, the --explicit flag does this.

Example

$ conda list -n foo
# packages in environment at /Users/mfansler/mambaforge-arm64/envs/foo:
