It uses -mostly the same techniques for finding packages, so packages that were -made easy_installable should be pip-installable as well. - -pip is meant to improve on easy_install. Some of the improvements: - -- All packages are downloaded before installation. Partially-completed - installation doesn't occur as a result. -- Care is taken to present useful output on the console. -- The reasons for actions are kept track of. For instance, if a package - is being installed, pip keeps track of why that package was required. -- Error messages should be useful. -- The code is relatively concise and cohesive, making it easier to use - programmatically. -- Packages don't have to be installed as egg archives, they can be - installed flat (while keeping the egg metadata). -- Native support for other version control systems (Git, Mercurial and - Bazaar). -- Uninstallation of packages. -- Simple to define fixed sets of requirements and reliably reproduce a - set of packages. - -pip is complementary with virtualenv, and it is encouraged that you use -virtualenv to isolate your installation. |
