Description

Would be nice if a JSON API was implemented. It will provide integration with repositories managers like Artifactory.

Look packagist response and Packagist JSON.

Please, consider this.
When I access to https://wpackagist.wpsv.se/p/wpackagist-plugin/akismet.json a 404 error is showed. Would be nice if the response was different, like this.

Research direction

Start by comparing the requested search.json?q=%query%&type=%type% and package JSON responses with the linked Packagist examples. Check the existing WPackagist endpoint behavior for /p/wpackagist-plugin/akismet.json. Done means the requested JSON API responses support repository-manager integration and the package URL no longer returns an unsuitable 404.
