Description:
installdist 0.2.1
About
installdist is used to ease the installation of local Python packages. It will probably be most useful to developers who are working with Python packages. With a single command, it will look for the nearest dist/ directory, identify the package with the highest version (or most recent timestamp), uninstall any pre-existing package with the same name, then install the package to the local installation. It doesn’t do anything that pip fundamentally can’t, it just simplifies the workflow greatly.
Installation
pip3 install --user installdist
The installdist package is known to be compatible with Python 3.
Usage
usage: installdist [OPTIONS] FILES/FOLDERS
Smartly install local Python source packages.
optional arguments:
-2, --pip2
install package with pip2
-a, --auto
skip prompts for user input
-d, --dry-run
indicate the commands to be run but do not execute
them
-n, --new
install package possessing the most recent timestamp
-p PACKAGE, --package PACKAGE
install package by parent directory
-q, --quiet
suppress normal output (for use with –auto)
-s, --system
install to system directory
-v, --verbose
set logging level to verbose
--version
show program’s version number and exit
-w, --wheel
install wheel package
NOTE: By default, installdist will uninstall any pre-existing installation
before using pip3 install –user to install the highest version zip or
tarball package available.
Please note that by default, installdist will use pip3 install --user to install the highest version zip or tarball package available. If you’d like to use pip2, wheel packages, the package with the most recent timestamp, or install to the system installation, use the appropriate flag.
installdist will not make changes without prompting you for confirmation, so don’t fear mistakes. To test a command, you may use the dry run flag (-d or --dry-run). It will simulate the command exactly, including any prompts.
To install a Python source package from the package’s root directory, installdist will look for a dist/ directory (in the current and parent directories) and identify the package with the highest version number.
