[question][2.0] Failed to use "conan inspect <pkg>/<version>" command to inspect the package?

Problem Description

Before Conan 2.0, I usually use conan inspect command to check all the available options of a package. For example, running conan inspect glew/2.2.0 command:

C:\Users\hwhsu1231>conan --version
Conan version 1.54.0

C:\Users\hwhsu1231>conan inspect glew/2.2.0

However, I found that this command failed with Conan 2.0:

C:\Users\hwhsu1231>conan --version
Conan version 2.0.0-beta5

C:\Users\hwhsu1231>conan inspect glew/2.2.0
ERROR: Conanfile not found at C:\Users\hwhsu1231\glew\2.2.0

After searching in the repository, I found this issue and its related PR:

• Issue: Change Conan 2.0 conan inspect syntax #12247
• PR: Simplify conan inspect command, removing path subcommand. #12263

According to the issue and the PR, there are some changes about conan inspect command syntax. However, it still failed with the following example commands. What should I do to reproduce the usage of conan inspect command of Conan 1.0 when using Conan 2.0?

C:\Users\hwhsu1231>conan inspect --reference=glew/2.2.0 --remote=conancenter
usage: conan inspect [-h] [-f FORMAT] [-v [V]] [--logger] path
conan inspect: error: the following arguments are required: path
ERROR: Exiting with code: 2

C:\Users\hwhsu1231>conan inspect --reference=glew/2.2.0 --cache
usage: conan inspect [-h] [-f FORMAT] [-v [V]] [--logger] path
conan inspect: error: the following arguments are required: path
ERROR: Exiting with code: 2

Environments and Versions

• OS+version: Windows 11
• Conan version: 2.0.0-beta5

Hi! Sorry about the radio silence. I guess you've solved this by now, but posting here for posterity:
conan inspect needs a path in Conan 2 - This works well in conjunction with conan cache path to get specific folders for any reference in the current cache

Closing this as solved, feel free to reopen/create a new issue should you have any other questions or requests, thanks!
