git clone + install in Python

Question

Is there a one-liner shortcut for:

git clone https://github.com/user/mypythonmodule.git
cd mypythonmodule
python setup.py install
cd ..

like

git clone install https://github.com/user/mypythonmodule.git

or doesn't this exist?

Answer 1

If you use pip it supports installing from git URLs.

From the pip documentation

"pip currently supports cloning over git, git+https and git+ssh"

So you would do

pip install git+https://github.com/user/mypythonmodule.git
