Description
I would like to share that it is possible (and very useful) to install Xonsh using uv
.
Assuming that uv
is available, here's how I do it:
uv tool install xonsh[full] --with pip
This allows me to install Xonsh very quickly, thanks to uv
, and use xpip
within Xonsh.
I would even dare to use Xonsh as a login shell, by making a simple change to the above command:
uv tool install --managed-python xonsh[full] --with pip
This instructs uv
to use an uv
-managed Python installation (which it downloads and installs if necessary) that is completely independent from whatever is installed on the system. This makes Xonsh immune from any breaking changes to the system's Python installation.
