Description
Before raising any bug be sure that you used the latest release and that it still reproduces with the latest master. No other version is supported.
Describe the bug
Web page as at 29 July 2021 states:
If you’re going to run the client standalone, we strongly recommend using a virtualenv, which pip can also set up for you:
$ pip -E jira_python install jira
$ workon jira_python
This will only work if you already have virtualenvwrapper installed which is not mentioned as a pre-requisite.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
On a fresh python installation that does not include virtualenvwrapper
pip -E jira_python install jira # Results in: no such option: -E
workon jira_python # Results in: 'workon' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
- Anybody who is using python but has not installed virtualenvwrapper
Expected behavior
Documentation to include pre-requisites or not use them, e.g. use python -mvenv to create the virtual environment.
