Installation

There is potential to make this pipx installable.

Register a custom demo hook

Create a new file called hook.py in your current directory with the following content:

# hook.py
from rich import print as rprint


def main(args):
    rprint(
        f"This [italic green]pre-pip[/italic green] hook received: [italic cyan]{args}[/italic cyan]",
    )

Register the hook using:

pre-pip add hook.py

You can view the list of registered hooks using:
