Description
Not sure if this is a bug or a feature request, I just wanted to note this here since I haven't seen a pertaining issue.
Describe the bug Executing pipx commands in parallel can result in unforeseen issues. I have noticed two main types of issues:
pipx listfails ifpipx installis ongoing due to missing metadata- if shared libraries are outdated, any pipx command will trigger a shared libraries upgrade, which will cause concurrent commands to fail
How to reproduce
Scenario 1
import subprocess
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
from typing import List
cmd = ["pipx", "list"]
cmd_list = [cmd] * 5 + ["pipx", "install", "pycowsay"]
with ThreadPoolExecutor() as executor:
results: List[subprocess.CompletedProcess] = list(executor.map(subprocess.run, cmd_list))
print(results)
Scenario 2
as above, but remove the pipx install and ensure shared libraries are outdated, for example by running in a docker container with outdated libraries
Expected behavior Don't fail, but wait for the concurrent process to finish (debatable)
At the very least I'd expect pipx list not to fail with exit code 1 when a pipx install is ongoing
