Install pip3 on jump / bastion for running Viya4-ARK about viya4-iac-azure HOT 7 CLOSED

Given OS version using Snap install, installing all the packages in requirements.txt would do, I'd think.

I would continue to use the apt tools as Snap does not always have the outcome one desires. As a side note, python3 is not the default python version on the Jump box, 2.7 still is setup as the default. If needed the alternate option needs to be setup to force python3 as the default on this system.

Do I need to do a fork and PR for this to be included ... or are you saying that someone will add using apt like I indicated above?

from viya4-iac-azure.

I believe there is already a section in the cloud-init script to add packages it could be added there. Yes as a clone/fork and PR would be appreciated. Will there be a focus on making python3 the default on the vm once it's active?

from viya4-iac-azure.

I can look at that, I cannot recall offhand if I had to make it the default or if I just ran the commands as python3 ...

from viya4-iac-azure.

I've done this on Ubuntu before here are the commands:

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/pip pip /usr/bin/pip3 1

In talking with Norm on this one, the IAC code base will install only docker. That will be the extent of the 3rd party tooling installation on the Jump VM. If folks want to enhance the server on their own, they can.
