Installation of poetry in default location for macOS not working for framework builds

After poetry installation, poetry is not a recognized command.

I am running python 3.11 on macOS. I inspected the installation code and I see the following function:

def bin_dir(version: Optional[str] = None) -> Path:
    if os.getenv("POETRY_HOME"):
        return Path(os.getenv("POETRY_HOME"), "bin").expanduser()

    user_base = site.getuserbase()

    if WINDOWS:
        bin_dir = os.path.join(user_base, "Scripts")
    else:
        bin_dir = os.path.join(user_base, "bin")

    return Path(bin_dir)

It seems like site.getuserbase() resolves to ~/Library/Python/3.11. That is not part of my PATH and therefore I get poetry: command not found.

Since I am configuring poetry with github-actions, I ended up doing the following:

python -c "import os, site; print(os.path.join(site.getuserbase(), 'bin'))" >> $GITHUB_PATH

I was just wondering if site-packages is the best default location for poetry and I presented an example on how sometimes poetry is not installed by default in a location included by PATH. Usually the decision is to install it in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin.

Inizia con la funzione bin_dir dell’installer e riproduci il comportamento di Python 3.11 su macOS, in cui site.getuserbase() restituisce ~/Library/Python/3.11. Confronta il percorso bin risultante con la gestione di PATH nel flusso di installazione e con la soluzione alternativa di GitHub Actions. Il lavoro è completato quando l’installazione predefinita è nel PATH oppure la configurazione PATH prevista è chiaramente definita e testata.
