# PyPM

Pypm is a python package manager for projects using Python 3 and above. This library is similar to npm. This command line tool works just like npm and should mirror its features.

## Reason

Yet another Python tool for your ```PATH```. If you're fluent in Flint or Poetry, give this a try. See areas of improvements? Let me know with a PR!
PyPM currently uses ```setup.cfg``` as the configuration file. This will be changed to adopt the ```.toml``` configuration file approach.

This project intends to introduce ***another*** project management tool to the Python community, plus its super light-weight.

## Install

***requires Python 3.6 or above***

PyPI

```bash
pip install pypm2
```

Locally

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ableinc/pypm
cd pypm
pip install --editable .
```

Visit PyPi:
[PyPi for Pyenv](https://pypi.org/project/pypm2/)

## How to Use

PyPM works just like npm. You are granted the same operations such as, init, install, uninstall, update, start, and run.
Run:

```bash
pypm --help
```

## Usage

1. init

Generate a brand new package.json file from information in your requirements.txt and setup.py.

```bash
pypm init
```

2. run

Run a predefined scripts from the 'scripts' section of your package.json.

```bash
pypm run tests
```

3. start

Run the start script.

```bash
pypm start
```

4. install 1

Install all or specific packages. Using 'install' as a standalone, it will install all dependencies listed in your package.json (if exists).

```bash
pypm install
```

or

```bash
pypm install package1 package2
```

5. uninstall 1

Uninstall all or specific packages. Using 'uninstall' as a standalone, it will uninstall all dependencies listed in your package.json (if exists).

```bash
pypm uninstall
```

or

```bash
pypm uninstall package1 package2
```

6. update 1

Update all or specific packages. Using 'update' as a standalone, it will update all dependencies listed in your package.json (if exists).

```bash
pypm update
```

or

```bash
pypm update package1 package2
```

7. setup

Instead of manually creating setup.py and setup.cfg files, you can add the same arguments under the 'setup' key in the package.json (refer to package.json), then run pypm setup to install your project locally.

```bash
pypm setup
```

Update setuptools, wheel, pip:

```bash
pypm setup True
```

Specify a version of python to use:

```bash
pypm setup --python python3.9
```

8. getreqs

Generate the requirments.txt file based on your (virtual) environment.

```bash
pypm getreqs
```

## Key

1 Any arguments that pip or npm allow can be combined into these command line arguments. Initiated by adding --arguments option. Example:

```bash
pypm --arguments --no-cache-dir install pydotenvs
```

The above example will install the library pydotenvs via PyPI using Pip's built in --no-cache-dir command.

If you have multiple arguments to append to a command you can seperate them by commas. For example:

```bash
pypm --arguments --no-cache,--verbose,--logs,~/Downloads install pydotenvs
```

## Notes

1. Documentation is on-going, so refer to examples above for now.

2. Unfortunately someone beat me to the name pypm. Note that when you use pip install be sure to include the 2. This would normally be an issue if you imported this package, but it's a command line tool

3. When generating the setup.py & setup.cfg files for development mode installation pip, setuptools and wheel may need to be updated. Follow the instructions above to update alongside setup functionality.
