NAME

zpip, an irispython pip wrapper
SYNOPSIS

zpip " [pip command] "
DESCRIPTION

zpip can be used like the python pip package but from the

InterSystems terminal.
  Use zpip just like any other pip command but wrap your 
  command with double-quotes. Usable in terminal and in app
  code.

EXAMPLES
  install 1 package (requests): 
      NS> zpip "install requests"
  
  install multiple packages (requests twilio bs4)
      NS> zpip "install twilio bs4"
  
  install with target directory (numpy)
      NS> zpip "install --target '/usr/irissys/lib/python' numpy"

LIMITATIONS

zpip should be run as a %All user, other configurations are

not in scope.
  zpip can only be used on InterSystem IRIS version >= 2022.1.

  zpip may work on 2021.2, but that version lacks key python
  features.

  zpip makes no guarantees of security. Install packages and run
  pip commands at your own risk!

  In general, irispython pip fails when packages require sudo, root, 
  or admin accessis required to install a package
