As an example of an approach that doesn't break Pypi, nltk distributes through Pypi but has an download() method for installation.

The fact they're hostile towards pip (and ergo pipenv and poetry) just make it less than appealing software to want to use.
- dr_zoidberg 5y ago1GB is huge for PyPI. In this kind of situations, is there a good way to provide a PyPI install while providing a secondary channel to download the massive assests? Say that I was distributing a project that relies on a few large binaries, and still want it to be pip-installable, what would be the best way to do that?
