Support cygwin

Currently when attempting to install on cygwin I get:

RuntimeError: Could not find poetry-0.12.17-cygwin.sha256sum file

Suggestion for feature request is to support cygwin.

If this is not on the roadmap please close this ticket.

can we reopen this?

As a workaround:

sed -i 's/platform = sys.platform/platform = "win32"/' get-poetry.py

This will alter the _make_lib function there: https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/blob/master/get-poetry.py#L571

I have the same error on a mac book when I run: poetry self update --preview

My poetry version is: Poetry version 1.1.11

@paconte

@paconte To go from Poetry 1.1 to 1.2-preview, you will have to reinstall with install.python-poetry.org. Additionally, I'm wondering how you got a Cygwin-related error on macOS -- did you maybe comment on the wrong issue?

You are right, it is a different error but related with the platform. When I run poetry self update --previewI get this error:

Updating to 1.2.0a2

  RuntimeError

      258│         except HTTPError as e:

      263│ 
      264│         checksum = r.read().decode().strip()

You'll need to use the installer at install.python-poetry.org to update -- Poetry 1.1 cannot self-update to 1.2-preview.

You are right. Thank you. I have seen the deprecation of get-poetry.py

Hey i am very new to programming. Could you please educate me on how can we install poetry using install.python-poetry.org

Could you please educate me on how can we install poetry using install.python-poetry.org

@finswimmer Your main docs still reference using

PS> poetry self update --preview

and the warning

The previous get-poetry.py and install-poetry.py installers are now deprecated. If you are currently using them you should migrate to the new, supported, installer through https://install.python-poetry.org.

is unclear. People are thinking they can still use

PS> poetry self update --preview

successfully if they have first installed with the PowerShell and curl commands accessing https://install.python-poetry.org.

Instead, you need to say

The previous get-poetry.py and install-poetry.py installers are now deprecated. If you are currently using them you should migrate to the new, supported, installer through https://install.python-poetry.org.

To do so, on MacOS/Linux, use

$ curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 - --preview

and on Windows

PS> (Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://install.python-poetry.org -UseBasicParsing).Content | py - --preview

This information is hidden in the Configure the installation section of your documentation and belongs under the Update Poetry section instead.

It doesn't make sense to a newcomer to look at the configuration sections, which is why you're getting all the bug reports.

Please also note that unless you want Poetry installed to the default location (on Windows, this is %APPDATA%), set the following environment variables before running the PowerShell command:

POETRY_HOME = Path to poetry install folder
POETRY_CACHE = Path to cache folder

You can also set these variables for virtual environment creation control:

POETRY_VIRTUALENVS_CREATE = true/false
POETRY_VIRTUALENVS_IN_PROJECT = true/false

@adam-grant-hendry

@adam-grant-hendry I recently rewrote the install docs, please open a new issue if you think they're unclear on the 1.2 installer migration.

Thank you very much! (I was just noting for posterity)
