Comment Post #290489 "Security professionals" are generally only trying to implement the minimum required hassle, but this generally means more hassle than many users will readily tolerate. However, the opposite would obviously be even worse; not enforcing the requirements would make security even worse for everyone. ...

Comment Post #290682 Should this also cover the use of a [`package_data` specification](https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/datafiles.html) in the packaging files? It's slightly out of scope for the actual question, but arguably the "correct" solution for anything which gets properly packaged and distributed.

Comment Post #289575 Perhaps that's a temporary problem. As it gains popularity, I'd expect it to become available via Apt / Yum / Pacman / Emerge / Conda / what have you. The Mac instructions already defer to Homebrew. (On the other hand, can't blame the maintainers if they don't want to have separate instructions for m...

Comment Post #289575 Thanks for the feedback. I removed the parentheses and expanded slighty on what exactly `pipx` does. The AWS example seems sufficient to me as an illustration; did you have some other type of example in mind?

Comment Post #280700 I think you are missing the point of this answer, which explains specifically why _demanding_ something is problematic. You too would probably at the very least explain - perhaps even politely - to someone who thinks they deserve your time **now** that right now, you prioritize walking with your kid...

Answer A: What is the point of pipx?
They are tools for different audiences. `pipx` does not replace `pip`. In some more detail, `pip` answers the question "As a Python developer, how can I install Python packages and their dependencies" whereas `pipx` answers the question "As a user, how can I conveniently install a tool which is av...

Comment Post #289514 `systemd-run` obviously requires `systemd`, which is pretty much ubiquitous on modern desktop Linux distros, but much less so on "real" Unix, embedded systems, etc.

Comment Post #289514 The generic text `split()` will work fine here; but in the general case, you should prefer `shlex.split()` which copes correctly with quoting, backslash escaping, etc.

Answer A: How to configure Python pip to look for packages in a private index first?
The `pip` command accepts an option `--index-url` to specify the primary index (defaults to PyPI) and zero or more `--extra-index-url` options to specify secondary indices. So for your use case, try ```sh pip install --index-url https://pypi.bar.com/simple --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simpl...

Answer A: For scripting what are the pros and cons of command line arguments versus capturing input at the start?
I'm coming down strongly in favor of command-line arguments or options over interactive I/O for a number of reasons: Providing arguments on the command line is vastly superior for programmatic invocation (for scripts calling scripts, including but not limited to the tool's own test suite, othe...

Comment Post #288549 The question is slightly unclear. The OP _seems_ to want to find files where the matches can be on separate lines, but the `grep` example in the question would only find occurrences on the same line.

Comment Post #288339 If that works, I would expect a here string to also work: ``` $ psql -v foo=bar -f <<<"SELECT :'foo' AS foo;" ``` ... but I don't have a `psql` instance to quickly test with. The here string syntax is Bash-only, though I hear it's slated to be included in POSIX eventually.

Answer A: grep AND search for multiple words in files
An alternative to `grep` is Awk, which makes this pretty easy. To find lines which contain both: ``` find . -type f -exec awk '/foo/ && /bar/' {} + ``` (Maybe add `{ print FILENAME ":" FNR ":" $0 }` before the closing quote if you want the filename and the line number.) To find files wh...

Comment Post #288510 Explicitly comparing the result code in `$?` is a bit of a code smell, although I can vaguely see why you might prefer that syntax here. To avoid it, `if { STDERR="$( { ${@}; } 2>&1 1>&3 3>&- )"; } 3>&1; then` ...
