Installing pip(Python package manager)

'pip'  is consider best package manager for python. It makes the installation easy for user.

Here are the steps to install pip. Before we install pip Python must be installed in system.

Note: PATH variable must be set for python. 

Refer my post  Installing Robot Framework with Python(an interpreter) using 'Selenium2Library' as library for more information on setting PATH variable and more information.

Go to https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py and copy all content of this page to one file in local system and name it as 'get-pip.py'.
.py is python extension.

Now open command prompt and navigate to the folder where get-pip.py file is located.

e.g. d:\pip\

Run following command: python get-pip.py

It will install all required file for pip and we are ready to go with smooth installation.
