Bootstrap pipx

Open ThatXliner opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

How would this feature be useful?

Since pipx has dependancies, I would like a way to bootstrap pipx. I acknowledge that you can do pipx install pipx

Describe the solution you'd like An alternative bootstrapping shell script.

Describe alternatives you've considered A PyPi package for pipx installing pipx-install. Although it's more cross platform, it would take more work, in my opinion.

Another way is to use zipapp: curl -L https://github.com/pypa/pipx/releases/latest/download/pipx.pyz -o pipx.pyz && python pipx.pyz
