You can "search" cdnjs via our API:
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries
Without any query parameters it will return the name and main file URL of every library on cdnjs. To search, use:
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries?search=jquery
You can also "select" a certain library if you already know its name on CDNJS, e.g.
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries/jquery
Without any query parameters it will return the whole meta data of the library, if you want to specify the info you want (recommended), use "fields" query:
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries/jquery?fields=name,filename,version
All the usable fields is the same as the library's package.json on CDNJS:
https://github.com/cdnjs/cdnjs/blob/master/ajax/libs/jquery/package.json
API will reture minified result by default, if you wanna have a human readable result, try output=human like this:
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries?output=human
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries?search=jquery&output=human
If you would like more data, use the fields parameter which takes comma-separated values:
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries?search=jquery&fields=version,description
To get a list of all files for that library, use the assets field:
https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries?search=jquery&fields=assets
Other fields available are:
version
description
homepage
keywords
license
repository
autoupdate
