Python Pipx
pipx(1) is a package management toolchain for Python, modeled after the Node toolchain. It wraps pip and venv.
Contents
Installation
Install pipx using pip.
Usage
For most use cases, simply replace pip with pipx in any command.
Packages installed this way are created as virtual environments under ~/.local/pipx.
If a package has correctly defined entry points, executable scripts are created as symlinks under ~/.local/bin into those virtual environments.
Configuration
To adjust the location of pipx(1)-managed files, try:
export PIPX_HOME=~/.local/pipx export PIPX_BIN_DIR=~/.local/bin
