Installation

For better comfort, use as a single-file isolated zipapp:

• https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0441/

• https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipapp.html

For example:

$ python -m pip install --target ./deptree/ deptree
$ python -m zipapp --python '/usr/bin/env python' --main 'deptree.cli:main' ./deptree/
$ mv ./deptree.pyz ~/.local/bin/deptree

Or use zapp, or toolmaker.

This way the tool can be used in virtual environments without installing it in the virtual environments. The tool can then see the projects installed in the virtual environment but without seeing itself.
