# pym - python package manager

A package manager for python that works like npm.

## Features

- Dependencies are installed locally (per project) with `venv` in `./python_module`

- Directly installed dependencies are added to `requirements.txt` automatically

- Cross platform: it works on Linux, Mac, and Windows (with git bash)

- This cli tool is a single executable file, you can name it whatever you want, e.g. pym, py, pm, or just p

## Why this name?

As inspired by npm (nodejs package manager), I named this tool ppm (python package manager) initially.

Later I checked with pacman (archlinux package manager) and found the package plan9port has already registered an executable named ppm, hence renamed to avoid name clash.

## Todo

Look into [PEP 582 - Python local packages directory](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0582) with [PDM](https://github.com/pdm-project/pdm).
