(it's so slow) Best way to upgrade pip to the latest version?

1

Hi,
I’m override latest PIP package (self.oBOOTSTRAPPED-PIP )

like

oBOOTSTRAPPED-PIP = OLD: (OLD.bootstrapped-pip.overrideAttrs (oldAttrs: {  version = "19.1.1";  }));

and python2/3x override too~.
like

    python35 = super.python35.override {  packageOverrides = python-self: python-super: {
      bootstrapped-pip = (self.oBOOTSTRAPPED-PIP python-super);
      pip = (self.oNON-BOOT-PIP python-super);
    };};

and add overrided module.

   (python35.withPackages(ps: [   ps.pip  ]   ))

or

    (python35.withPackages(ps: [   ps.bootstrapped-pip ] ++ py35MODULEs  ))

hmm.
Whether you choose bootstrapped-pip or just pip,
If you specify pip as the latest latest version,
The entire system is bootstrapped and takes too long to install.

Is there anything I missed?
Without bootstrapping the system, I want to install the latest pip.

Thanks.

The package boostrapped-pip is used by buildPython* to build packages using Nix. The package pip can be installed by the user and should result in a functioning pip allowing you to install things without Nix.

What is it you want to do? I suspect the latter. In that case, override pip and you’re set. It won’t cause a big rebuild because it is not a dependency.

thanks, I’ll try it again and give you the results.
Previously, although just pip to the system bootstrap like gentoo, and it took two days to no end install… g,.g

    oPIP = OLD: (OLD.pip.overrideAttrs (oldAttrs: {  version = "19.1.1";  }));

Well, the problem reason is my scripting so globally…dependency ,
and especially the houdini package uses python2.
because I wanna use HyLang as anywhere.
Anyway I upgraded python37 pip again with your advice.
so simply time. thanks.

But python27 pip depends on system-wide dependencies beyond houdini, as mentioned above houdini It takes a long time to play.
I will only add it to the houdini derivation but not other, plan to install it.
.
Is there a way to disable dependency to Python versions of.
certain system-wide versions of the configuration options at all?
(Just like the gentoo use flag).
If we have such an option, it would be great. (hmm that’s buildInput… -_-)

pip, but if you do not want bootstrap, the system will do a full bootstrap.
I think python part is a lot of trouble.
Especially
If you stop the build switch, have to start from scratch.
It is a crazy system …
So, when I’m remove all Python relation package., get the binaries from nix.cache.
Funny thing is that even with the emacs packages, rebuild it.
.
What is nixos doing with the alternate Python package?
This is not a little…, a lot of crazy.
.
NixOS is very nice, but this is a bit sad.
I think that problem is build the system recursively many times more than gentoo.
To avoid these problems,
Can you just give me a simple option?
.
The override system (only modules) seems to require a lot of upgrades.
