We can install from Microsoft’s repo or install from PIP. However, when using system’s PIP, it would get:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/requests/__init__.py:89: RequestsDependencyWarning: urllib3 (1.26.6) or chardet (3.0.4) doesn't match a supported version!
warnings.warn("urllib3 ({}) or chardet ({}) doesn't match a supported "
The message is harmless, but annoying. I want to install it as my own user.
Install venv:
sudo apt -y install python3-venv
Create an environment for Azure CLI:
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/python3
python3 -m venv ~/.local/share/python3/env-az
Enable that:
source ~/.local/share/python3/env-az/bin/activate
Install Azure CLI:
pip install azure-cli
Notes
Everytime want to use the Azure CLI, just activate:
source ~/.local/share/python3/env-az/bin/activate
add to ~/.bashrc to have it permanent.
I’m using ~/.local/share path to have it FHS compliant.
