This repository hosts scripts to generate self-contained installations of the EB CLI. On Linux and macOS, the output contains instructions to add the EB CLI (and Python) executable file to the shell's $PATH variable, if it isn't already in it. The ebcli_installer.py Python script will install the awsebcli package in a virtual environment to prevent potential conflicts with other Python packages. Even within a virtualenv, a developer might need to install multiple packages whose dependencies are in conflict. For example, at times the AWS CLI and the EB CLI have used conflicting versions of botocore. One such instance was particularly egregious. When there are conflicts, users have to manage separate virtualenvs for each of the conflicting packages, or find a combination of the packages without conflicts.
