Error gentoo please run pip with the user option to avoid breaking python exec

To solve WARNING: Running pip as the ‘root’ user can result in broken permissions and conflicting behaviour error follow below methods.

ERROR LOG

WARNING: Running pip as the 'root' user can result in broken permissions and conflicting behaviour with the system package manager. It is recommended to use a virtual environment instead

Running pip as the ‘root’ account can cause permissions to be broken and conflicting behaviour Error Because the way your container is created doesn’t allow for the creation of a user, everything is done as root. You could perform something like this to create a user and install to that user’s home directory:

FROM python:3.8.3-alpine

RUN pip install --upgrade pip

RUN adduser -D myuser
USER myuser
WORKDIR /home/myuser

COPY --chown=myuser:myuser requirements.txt requirements.txt
RUN pip install --user -r requirements.txt

ENV PATH="/home/user/.local/bin:${PATH}"

COPY --chown=myuser:myuser . .

CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:8000"]

Alternative to solve WARNING: Running pip as the ‘root’ user can result in broken permissions :

You can ignore this warning because the image was created for a single purpose and is thus as organizationally isolated as a virtual environment. Technically, no, but that’s beside the point.

It usually isn’t worth it to spend the time and effort to establish a virtual environment in an image or add a user, as suggested in the other response, just to avoid the alert, because you shouldn’t have any problems.

Check pip -V and pip3 -V to see if you need to be careful not to use pip for Python 2 when you really want pip for Python 3. But that should be all, and you won’t have that difficulty if you only install pip for Python 3.

Hope the above solution works.
