Extend Ruby gem to provide query if a package exists

[chrisinmtown]

Please extend your Ruby gem package_cloud feature set to provide a command that checks if a package at a specific version exists in a given repository. Maybe just check the filename via the API "show" endpoint? Alternately if you provide the full "show" feature via the gem, I guess I could rummage thru the JSON that's returned to answer this question.

I see that the API supports "show" for deb/rpm, "gem_show" for ruby, and so on. Probably should implement all of them. I confess I only need the deb/rpm variant right now :)

I would like to use this in a package-release workflow that will use the promote endpoint, and would like to check first if the command has a chance of succeeding. Thanks in advance for considering it.

Hmm, after more searching I see that there's a PackageCloud Ruby library, and a PackageCloud Ruby gem ("package_cloud"). I hope I've opened this issue in the right Github. If not please redirect me, thanks.

I see the last commit in this repo was Aug 2018, that's about 14 months ago. Has this been abandoned?
