Browsing Chainguard Libraries

Chainguard Libraries includes thousands of libraries and many more individual library versions and artifacts. Through the Chainguard Console, you can browse all available libraries and their versions, and inspect their characteristics before using them in your application development.

Access libraries in the Chainguard Console

Log in to the Chainguard Console at https://console.chainguard.dev/.

In the left-hand navigation under Libraries, expand Ecosystems to find links for browsing Chainguard’s Java and Python libraries.

Browse the libraries list

When you open a specific ecosystem, you’ll see a search input box and a list of libraries. Click any row to open the library detail page.

The list includes the following columns:

• Name - the full library name, excluding any version identifiers.
  • Python library names are simple strings, such as setuptools or Flask-Admin.
  • Java library names are the concatenation of the Maven coordinate values groupId and artifactId, separated by :. Examples are org.springframework:spring-core or org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-http.
• Latest version - the latest released and available version of the library and the total number of available versions.
• Updated - The most recent date when any version of this library was built and published by Chainguard.

At the bottom of the page, see a total count of available libraries.

Search the libraries list

Use the Search text input at the top of the libraries list to narrow down the list and to locate a specific library.

Click into a row to view a specific library page.

View remediated libraries

CVE remediation is available for a subset of Chainguard Libraries for Python. You can view remediated libraries in the Chainguard Console.

In the Python libraries directory, click the Remediated tab to view a list of remediated libraries. Click into a library to see which versions have remediated CVEs.

While viewing the list of remediated versions for a library, click into a version to view more details: which CVEs were remediated, the date that the version was patched, and links to additional resources.

Learn more about browsing remediations in CVE remediation for Chainguard Libraries.

Library page

To access a library page, click on the row for a specific library in the search results or the initial library list.

On a library’s page, use the search bar at the top to search for specific versions.

The list of library versions includes the following columns:

• Version - the version of the library. Library versions are strings. Depending on the ecosystem and library they can follow naming patterns and other restrictions that allow ordering by version.
• Size - the size of the library.
  • The displayed size reflects the primary file(s) only: .jar/.pom for Java, and .whl/.tar.gz for Python. It is not an aggregation of all files under a given version.
• Built - The date when this version was built and published by Chainguard.

Click on the column titles to change the sort order of the list.
