Can't generate PKGBUILD from a git repository about pipman HOT 12 OPEN

Ok, thanks. Good luck!

from pipman.

pipman doesn't currently support installing from a git repository. I'll look into it and verify if it can be implemented.

Ok thanks! What is the other way to install this particular program?

from pipman.

You mean to install on Arch Linux? You can create a PKGBUILD for that. Arch Linux's wiki explains the process very well. You can also some other PKGBUILD as a base. You can download the for any package with yay -G package, either from AUR or the main repositories.

from pipman.

Well not really to install it then, just have a directory with the deps needed to execute it locally.

from pipman.

Did you try following the instructions on the project's repository? It worked for me. The following command should do it:
pip3 install --user git+https://github.com/amezin/powerplay-table-editor.git

And then you run with
amdgpu-pptable-editor

from pipman.

Well it does work, but I want to have it on a local folder.

from pipman.

The executable should be located in ~/.local/bin/amdgpu-pptable-editor if you installed with the --user option. You can create a .desktop file for it and place it in your ~/.local/share/applications, then it will appear in your menu just like any other application. Just grab some .desktop file on that directory and edit the run command and the icon if you wish, and save it as a new file on that directory. If you have a hard time doing that let me know and I'll help you creating a .desktop file for you.

Otherwise you can just symlink it to your local folder (ln -s ~/.local/bin/amdgpu-pptable-editor /path/to/your/local/folder) and mark it as executable with you file manager.

Ok, this sounds good, thanks.
If I remove the executable, does it remove everything that was installed by pip install --user ?

from pipman.

No, you should uninstall it with pip uninstall amdgpu_pptable

from pipman.

Alright, and if I really want one folder containing everything, I can just use virtualenv I guess. I
I'll leave the issue open if you think you can implement generating a PKGBUILD from a git repo.

Thank you for your help 🥇
