Description:
poopip 0.2.2
poopip: for when pip is too slow 💩
poopip is a tiny python package installer/uninstaller
designed for working on local (i.e. already in your filesystem) pure python packages
poopip has very few features, but this makes it fast! 🔥
get poopip
assuming you have your favorite virtual environemnt already set up, you can run
pip install poopip
or else you can clone this repo and issue
python poopip/poopip.py install poopip/
usage
for some/path/to/a/package the following should work:
# install to our current environment
poop install some/path/to/a/thing
# install globally for current user
poop --user install some/path/to/a/thing
# install in "editable" mode
poop install -e some/path/to/a/thing
# uninstall package from current environment
poop uninstall thing
# uninstall user's global package
poop --user uninstall thing
generally poopip will take the name of the directory as the name of the package and
assume the code is either at thing/thing.py, or a directory thing/thing/ - it's on
our todo list to read the pyproject.toml for this.
goals
fast: aims to be the fastest step in your dev/ci process
small: single file under 1000 lines of code
portable: pure python, zero dependencies
readable: reading the source code will tell you something about how installs work
On the portability front, currently poopip only officially supports linux - contributions are welcome.
non-goals
requirements: poopip doesn't care about your package's requirements, just use a requirements file and install them yourself
pypa specifications: poopip doesn't aim to implement all of the specifications where they conflict with its goals
setup.py: we have no intention of supporting setup.py or even dynamic pyproject fields
Note that while poopip understands and can update or uninstall pip-installed packages the converse is not true. The reason is that poopip's metadata operates at the directory level, whereas pip relies upon a list of individual files - creating this list is slow with large packages, so we don't do it. Use poopip to unistall poopip-installed packages.
benchmarks
Here's how long it takes to install poopip itself (a zero-dependency, single python file) with various tools.
In the regular old install case, poopip is up to 300x faster than pip!

Flit's not really a package manager, but it is much faster than pip if we use symlinks (flit install -s --deps none), so if you're after a good dev experience and only want to install in editable mode I would highly recomend it as a more sane option.
