Install & Update

Install prich

Until prich is published on PyPI, you can install it directly from GitHub.

Recommended: Use pipx

pipx install git+https://github.com/oleks-dev/prich

This installs prich in an isolated environment, ideal for CLI tools.
Make sure pipx is installed (pip install pipx && pipx ensurepath).

Alternative: Use uv

uv venv prich-env
source prich-env/bin/activate
uv pip install git+https://github.com/oleks-dev/prich

Manual

git clone https://github.com/oleks-dev/prich.git
cd prich
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install .

Update prich

Using pipx with --force to reinstall:

pipx install git+https://github.com/oleks-dev/prich --force

Initialize prich:

prich uses nodejs-like home/local folder configurations for flexible usage of the configs and templates per project.

  • Local folder based bash prich init > Creates .prich/ with a default preprocessing shared venv (.prich/venv/) and config file.

  • Global user folder based bash prich init -g

    Creates ~/.prich/ with a default preprocessing shared venv (~/.prich/venv/) and config file.
