Install and execute apps from Python packages.

Binaries can either be installed globally into isolated Virtual Environments
or run directly in a temporary Virtual Environment.

Virtual Environment location is ~/.local/pipx/venvs.
Symlinks to apps are placed in ~/.local/bin.

optional environment variables:
  PIPX_HOME             Overrides default pipx location. Virtual Environments
                        will be installed to $PIPX_HOME/venvs.
  PIPX_BIN_DIR          Overrides location of app installations. Apps are
                        symlinked or copied here.
  PIPX_DEFAULT_PYTHON   Overrides default python used for commands.
  USE_EMOJI             Overrides emoji behavior. Default value varies based
                        on platform.

### pipx install

```
/usr/bin/python3 -m pipx install --help
usage: /usr/bin/python3 -m pipx install [-h] [--include-deps] [--verbose]
                                        [--force] [--suffix SUFFIX]
                                        [--python PYTHON]
                                        [--system-site-packages]
                                        [--index-url INDEX_URL] [--editable]
                                        [--pip-args PIP_ARGS]
                                        package_spec

The install command is the preferred way to globally install apps
from python packages on your system. It creates an isolated virtual
environment for the package, then ensures the package's apps are
accessible on your $PATH.

The result: apps you can run from anywhere, located in packages
you can cleanly upgrade or uninstall. Guaranteed to not have
dependency version conflicts or interfere with your OS's python
packages. 'sudo' is not required to do this.

pipx install PACKAGE_NAME
pipx install --python PYTHON PACKAGE_NAME
pipx install VCS_URL
pipx install ./LOCAL_PATH
pipx install ZIP_FILE
pipx install TAR_GZ_FILE

The PACKAGE_SPEC argument is passed directly to `pip install`.

The default virtual environment location is ~/.local/pipx
and can be overridden by setting the environment variable `PIPX_HOME`
(Virtual Environments will be installed to `$PIPX_HOME/venvs`).

The default app location is ~/.local/bin and can be
overridden by setting the environment variable `PIPX_BIN_DIR`.

The default python executable used to install a package is
/usr/bin/python3 and can be overridden
by setting the environment variable `PIPX_DEFAULT_PYTHON`.

positional arguments:
  package_spec          package name or pip installation spec

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --include-deps        Include apps of dependent packages
  --verbose
  --force, -f           Modify existing virtual environment and files in
                        PIPX_BIN_DIR
  --suffix SUFFIX       Optional suffix for virtual environment and executable
                        names. NOTE: The suffix feature is experimental and
                        subject to change.
  --python PYTHON       The Python executable used to create the Virtual
                        Environment and run the associated app/apps. Must be
                        v3.6+.
  --system-site-packages
                        Give the virtual environment access to the system
                        site-packages dir.
  --index-url INDEX_URL, -i INDEX_URL
                        Base URL of Python Package Index
  --editable, -e        Install a project in editable mode
  --pip-args PIP_ARGS   Arbitrary pip arguments to pass directly to pip
                        install/upgrade commands

```


### pipx run

```
/usr/bin/python3 -m pipx run --help
usage: /usr/bin/python3 -m pipx run [-h] [--no-cache] [--pypackages]
                                    [--spec SPEC] [--verbose]
                                    [--python PYTHON] [--system-site-packages]
                                    [--index-url INDEX_URL] [--editable]
                                    [--pip-args PIP_ARGS]
                                    app ...

Download the latest version of a package to a temporary virtual environment,
then run an app from it. The environment will be cached
and re-used for up to 14 days. This
means subsequent calls to 'run' for the same package will be faster
since they can re-use the cached Virtual Environment.

In support of PEP 582 'run' will use apps found in a local __pypackages__
directory, if present. Please note that this behavior is experimental,
and acts as a companion tool to pythonloc. It may be modified or
removed in the future. See https://github.com/cs01/pythonloc.

                        git+https://github.com/user/repo.git@branch`
