# ptipython metapackage
ptpython + ipython = ptipython
## Description
ptipython-metapackage is a convenient way to manage both [ptpython](https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/ptpython/) and [IPython](https://ipython.org/) as a single package. It brings not only both REPLs — `ptpython` and `ipython`, but in addition, `ptipython` — a combined “interactive shell with all the power that IPython has to offer” on top of ptpython features.
Unlike [alternatives](#alternatives), this metapackage uses pinned dependencies and tracks ptpython and IPython releases. Each time a new version of ptpython and/or IPython is released, there is a new version of ptipython-metapackage. It makes upgrading really easy — to get the latest versions of both ptpython and IPython you only need to upgrade the metapackage.
## Installation
ptipython-metapackage is built with [pipx](https://pipx.pypa.io/) in mind. To install the metapackage, run:
```shell
pipx install ptipython-metapackage
```
This command installs the latest version of the metapackage (that is, the latest versions of ptpython and IPython) and adds `ptpython`, `ipython`, and `ptipython` executables to `PATH`.
To upgrade to the latest version of the metapackage (that is, the latest version of ptpython and/or IPython), run:
```shell
pipx upgrade ptipython-metapackage
```
If you use `pip`, run
```shell
pip install -U ptipython-metapackage
```
to install or upgrade the metapackage.
## Alternatives
### Timo Furrer's [ptipython-meta](https://github.com/timofurrer/ptipython-meta)
```shell
pipx install --include-deps ptipython
```
### ptpython with `ptipython` extra
```shell
pipx install --include-deps 'ptpython[ptipython]'
```
