pipx-in-pipx (pronounced 'pipx in pipx') is a utility designed to bootstrap pipx itself using pipx. It allows for running or installing pipx into an isolated pipx environment, primarily for ensuring a consistent pipx setup or installing specific pipx versions. The current version is 1.0.1, released in October 2019, indicating a stable but less actively developed codebase.
pip install pipx-in-pipxVerified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.
This command uses `pipx run` to execute the `pipipxx` module (which is `pipx-in-pipx`), which in turn installs a specific version of `pipx` (e.g., 1.2.0) into its own isolated pipx environment. This is the primary use case for managing pipx versions or ensuring a clean pipx setup.
When running via `pipx run`, use `pipx run pipipxx`. If you need to import, use `import pipipxx`. Refer to the GitHub README for correct usage patterns.
For its intended purpose, prefer executing it from the command line using `pipx run pipipxx [args]`.
Review the official `pipx` documentation for recent changes if encountering unexpected behavior, and consider if this tool is still the most current or necessary approach for very new `pipx` versions. It might be sufficient to simply `pip install pipx` and then `pipx install` other tools.
