Toot

Written by The B is Silent on 2024-11-03 at 20:32

OK, I think I’ve been able to (with the help of many others) get this figured out. There are a few things that happened to get me where I’m at, but mostly it was me

• not paying attention

• not reading the uv docs closely enough

• me just being silly.

I’m going to work on a TIL that I’ll post later today, but tl;dr uv doesn’t install pip by default when creating a venv and that was a problem. Thanks to everyone that helped me figure this out!

@ryancheley I hit that uv issue also and found it very confusing. This definitely seems like a worthwhile write up.

@treyhunner @ryancheley It feels like more of a feature than a bug.

I assume uv pip works, but not pip. One solution might be to alias pip to uv pip.

If I were on a bare metal system, I would not want or expect installing uv to include pip.

@webology @treyhunner @ryancheley

One thing that I am trying to put in my mind since I moved to UV is that every command will be prefixed by uv even the python interpreter.

@bruno @treyhunner @ryancheley I have kind of approached it backwards by slowly adding uv to existig projects.

My first two use cases were replacing pip-tools + compile and running uv tool pre-commit were natural fits for me before using it for uv pip install.

Now I'm flirting with workspaces (I can not get them to work) and uv python install (works great)

@webology @treyhunner agreed and yes, uv pip would work. This was a case of me making some assumptions, and while I was working on a thing getting distracted for an hour before coming back to it and getting pretty tripped up. A good learning experience for sure
