Right so; I'll try that next time. Thanks. I just go by the very prominent "pip install X" on every pypi page (as well as "pip install .." in many READMEs).

- simonw 2y agoYeah, totally understand that - pipx is still pretty poorly known by people who are active in Python development! A few of my READMEs start like this: https://github.com/simonw/paginate-json?tab=readme-ov-file#installation https://github.com/simonw/paginate-json?tab=readme-ov-file#i... ## Installation pip install paginate-json Or use pipx (link to pipx site) pipx install paginate-json But I checked and actually most them still don't even mention it. I'll be fixing that in the future.
- arp242 2y agoOut of the 3 things I want to install 2 don't work. Both of these seem bugs in pipx so I reported one, but the feedback was borderline hostile and it ended up being closed with "unclear what you want". I'm not even going to bother reporting the other bug. So whatever the goals are, it doesn't really work. And in general pipx does not strike me as a serious project.
