pip-launcher

⚠️ This is alpha stuff, things may change without notice. ⚠️

Download and run pip in the current python environment without installing it.

This script downloads the latest supported pip version in a cache directory. It then runs pip in the python environment that was used to lauch it, alleviating the need to install pip in the target python environment.

To force dowloading the latest supported pip version, run the script with a single upgrade-pip argument.

This script works with python 2.7 and 3.5+.

Created by Stéphane Bidoul, based on an idea by Paul Moore (pypa/pip#11243)
