Include `pipx` with proper configuration

Open huxuan opened this issue 1 year ago • 7 comments

Though we already have asdf, it might be better to also have pipx so that we can install Python Applications directly from PyPI when needed.

Current workaround in .readthedocs.yaml:

      - asdf plugin add pipx
      - asdf install pipx latest
      - asdf global pipx latest
      - PIPX_BIN_DIR=$READTHEDOCS_VIRTUALENV_PATH/bin pipx install <package>

The mostly inconvenience is that we have to specify the PIPX_BIN_DIR to make it actually work. It would be great if we can have it properly configured just like asdf.
