- python >= 3.7.0
- python standard library
- GNU Make (optional)
- pytest (optional, for running tests)
This method does not make any changes to your python site packages.
This installation method uses the zipapp module. Python can execute a zip of python files so long as the first bytes of the zip are a hashbang (e.g. #!/usr/bin/python) and the zip has the executable bit set.
To install an executable named pathpick to /usr/local/bin/ by default, run:
make install
Modify the PREFIX environment variable to change this:
PREFIX=~/.local make install
Ensure $PREFIX/bin is in your $PATH for easy execution, and verify such with:
pathpick --version
To install with pip run either
pip install . --use-feature=in-tree-build
or alternatively
make pipinstall
To install with setup.py run either
python setup.py install
or alternatively
make setupinstall
- --config
- config.ini
If you have pytest installed, simply execute pytest in the root of this repository.
Alternatively, try make test to install pytest to a temporary python virtual environment, execute pytest from this virtual environment, and destroy the virtual environment after the testing is completed.
