For some CLI tools dependencies are not installed

[albdv]

For some CLI tools click as a dependency is not installed and even after doing pipx inject it still fails to run.

You can find a codesnippet here:

Expected behavior
working package after installation

[uranusjr]

Sorry if I’m way off, but do you happen to have the environment variable PIP_USER set in your shell?

[albdv]

no I do not have such env var set.

[clbarnes]

How did you install pipx? It's not installing click because it thinks it's already installed. It thinks that because it can find the site-packages directory in a tree below ~/pipx; it probably doesn't have access to that at runtime. If that directory is on one of your path variables, which may get mangled by pipx later, that might explain it?

[albdv]

Installed with brew

Requirement already satisfied: click in /usr/local/Cellar/pipx/0.14.0.0/libexec/lib/python3.7/site-packages (from doc2dash) (7.0)

It things that click requirements satisfied by packages in libexec of pipx package.
Should it be isolated during installation of the package like it is when we execute it or I'm out of idea why during the installation it could solve the dependency and fails on exec state.

[uranusjr]

I kind of recall some similar issues from Pipenv installed via Homebrew… Did you upgrade the python formula to 3.8? (edit: check the output of brew info python to know what Python version you’re on)

[albdv]

https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/python
Currently available version of python via brew is 3.7.5

~ brew info python                                                                                                                          
python: stable 3.7.5 (bottled), HEAD

No I didn't upgrade python to 3.8

[uranusjr]

Or did you upgrade python (say from 3.7.4 to 3.7.5) after installing pipx? Also try brew update && brew upgrade pipx and see if that helps. (Sorry if I seem to keep asking weird questions without helping much.)

[albdv]

 ~ brew info pipx                                                                                                                           

Installed after upgrade to python 3.7.5 with brew.
No problems, feel free to ask me whatever you need.

[cs01]

This looks similar to #233 which was fixed in master but not yet released on PyPI.

[cs01]

@Beastea does the master branch of pipx work for you? You can test it out with

pipx run --spec git+https://github.com/pipxproject/pipx.git pipx install doc2dash --force

[albdv]

@cs01 I've got a workaround right now and I've checked the issue referenced. It looks exactly like what I'm experiencing now. Fix looks good to me and I could live untill the next version with what I have now, I'm sorry to bother you but I wasn't been able to find a similar issue with the search. But now all fine. Thanks in advance. Looking forward for next release.

[cs01]

Nice! No need to apologize, it was a valid bug you ran into. And thanks @uranusjr and @clbarnes for helping out as well!
