Python: Download and install a wheel

The following example demonstrates how a specific wheel can be downloaded and then be installed separately with pip.

First, we need to determine the URL of the wheel we want to download from PyPI. For the bottle package, this is https://pypi.org/project/bottle/#files

Then, the process is relatively straight forward:

$pkgUrl    = …

$pw        = convertTo-SecureString "theSecret" -asPlainText -force
$proxyCred = new-object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -argumentList "domainxyz\rene", $pw

invoke-webRequest $pkgUrl -proxy $proxyUrl -proxyCredential $proxyCred -out $env:temp/bottle-0.12.25-py3-none-any.whl

pip install $env:temp\bottle-0.12.25-py3-none-any.whl
