Listen "163: pip install ./local_directory - Stéphane Bidoul"
Episode Synopsis
pip : "pip installs packages" or maybe "Package Installer for Python" pip is an invaluable tool when developing with Python. A lot of people know pip as a way to install third party packages from pypi.org You can also use pip to install from other indexes (or is it indices?)You can also use pip to install a package in a local directory. That's the part I want to jump in and explore with Stéphane Bidoul. The way pip installs from a local directory is about to change, and the story is fascinating.Special Guest: Stéphane Bidoul.Links:The Odoo Community AssociationPEP 610 -- Recording the Direct URL Origin of installed distributions | Python.orgPEP 660 -- Editable installs for pyproject.toml based builds (wheel based) | Python.org — Bidoulpip install --no-index --find-links Solving issues related to out-of-tree builds · Issue #7555 · pypa/pippip list json format
