It depends on what your recipe is doing really (and when). If the egg
is already installed in your
environment, by the time your recipe code is run, you can grab these
info using pkg_resources:
>>> pkg_resources.get_distribution('myproject').version,
>>> pkg_resources.get_distribution('myproject').project_name
If it's not installed, well, is a bit trickier because you need to run
a command on the project's setup.py.
What are you trying to achieve ?
