Stop pip from failing on single package when installing with requirements.txt
pip, python
Solution
Running each line with `pip install` may be a workaround.
cat requirements.txt | xargs -n 1 pip install
Note: `-a` parameter is not available under MacOS, so old cat is more portable.
Problem
I am installing packages from `requirements.txt` ``` pip install -r requirements.txt ``` The `requirements.txt` file reads: ``` Pillow lxml cssselect jieba beautifulsoup nltk ``` `lxml` is the only package failing to install and this leads to everything failing (expected results as pointed out by larsks in the comments). However, after `lxml` fails `pip` still runs through and downloads the rest of the packages. From what I understand the `pip install -r requirements.txt` command will fail if any of the packages listed in the `requirements.txt` fail to install. Is there any argument I can pass when running `pip install -r requirements.txt` to tell it to install what it can and skip the packages that it cannot, or to exit as soon as it sees something fail?
