pipx: Install a package in a virtual environment and add entry points to path.
$ pipx install ${package}
try on your machine
The command "pipx install ${package}" is used to install a Python package using the pipx package manager with a specified package name.
Here's a breakdown of the components of the command:
- "pipx" is a package manager for Python packages that provides a way to install packages in isolated environments.
- "install" is a sub-command used with pipx to indicate that we want to install a package.
- "${package}" is a placeholder that represents the name of the specific package that you want to install. You need to replace "${package}" with the actual name of the package you want to install.
For example, if you want to install the package called "requests" using pipx, you would replace "${package}" with "requests" in the command: "pipx install requests". This would initiate the installation of the "requests" package using pipx.
