Installing via pip

See original GitHub issue

Pinging @craigmaloney here, to continue a conversation about the new pip package.

I’d love to test this, so let me give details on my setup and hopefully we can document this to be super easy for nerdy people that want to use Mastodon via CLI. 😄

I did update it with the updated instructions.

Craig, for the world of me I can’t find where those instructions are. Maybe it is a caching issue, but the readme appears the same. Link me, please!

make sure your are using the latest version of pip. Ubuntu ships with 1.5.4 which won’t work because of https.

I am using pip 9.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7). That seems like a big leap in version numbering, so that looks okay, ne?

The way I’ve installed things is to use a virtual environment to keep all of the libraries involved in one space. That way it won’t try to upgrade the system packages.

I have a video where I discuss more of how to use virtual environments if you want.

OK, I updated the README.md with instructions of how to install via pip.
