pdm-bin-dir
pdm-bin-dir is a PDM plugin that automatically prepends additional project directories to PATH when running commands via PDM. This lets you place helper scripts alongside your project and run them as plain commands — no prefix or activation needed.
Requirements
- Python 3.10 or later
- PDM 2.0 or later
Installation
Install the plugin into PDM's own environment:
pdm self add pdm-bin-dir
Usage
The plugin is opt-in per project: it has no effect unless [tool.pdm.plugin.bin-dir] is present in the project's pyproject.toml. Once configured, the listed directories are prepended to PATH before every pdm run … invocation.
Configuration
Add to your project's pyproject.toml:
[tool.pdm.plugin.bin-dir]
dirs = ["bin", "scripts"]
Paths are relative to the project root. Absolute paths are also accepted. The default is an empty list (no directories added).
pdm bin-dir command
The plugin registers a bin-dir sub-command for inspecting and changing the configuration:
# Show current configured directories (JSON array)
pdm bin-dir show
# Replace the list
pdm bin-dir set bin scripts
# Append to the list (duplicates are silently skipped)
pdm bin-dir add tools
Changes made via set / add are written back to pyproject.toml.
