pubspec.yaml

  ...  
  dependencies:
    packages: ^0.1.0

import 'package:packages/packages.dart';

final Packages packages = new Packages();
final Package package = packages.resolvePackageUri(
    Uri.parse("package:grinder")
    );

print(package.packagename); // grinder

print(package.lib.path); 
// file:///Users/mikemitterer/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/grinder-0.8.0+3/lib;

print(package.uri.path); 
// file:///Users/mikemitterer/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/grinder-0.8.0+3/lib;    

final Uri resource = await package.resource;
print(resource); 
// http://localhost:62232/packages/grinder
        
print(package.root);
// file:///Users/mikemitterer/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/grinder-0.8.0+3

or if you want a specific file in a package

final Package package = packages.resolvePackageUri(
    Uri.parse("package:grinder/src/ansi.dart")
    );

print(package.packagename); // grinder

print(package.lib.path); 
// file:///Users/mikemitterer/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/grinder-0.8.0+3/lib;

print(package.uri.path); 
// file:///Users/mikemitterer/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/grinder-0.8.0+3/lib/src/ansi.dart;    

final Uri resource = await package.resource;
print(resource); 
// http://localhost:62232/packages/grinder/src/ansi.dart

// Global packages
final globals = await packages.globals;
final localPackages = globals.where((final GlobalPackage package) => package.hasPath);
localPackages.forEach((final package) => print(package.path.value));
