Install django-app without PIP

Question

I want to install a django-app without PIP.

I'm using virtualenv with django.

The app is this: https://github.com/garmoncheg/django_multiuploader

that doesn't support PIP.

Thanks in advance. Regards.

Answer 1

pip is just a generic package installer that defaults to pulling packages from PyPi (the official Python package repository). However, it can install apps from other repositories, source revision control systems (like Git) or even local archives.

If you want to pull the app directly from github, you can just do:

pip install git+https://github.com/garmoncheg/django_multiuploader#egg=django-multiuploader

See: http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/usage.html#install-packages

Answer 2

Download the zip archive, extract the multiuploader directory to the same directory where you have manage.py, then follow the directions from the github page.
