Handle the "No module named pip" error in Python
try:
import pip
except ImportError:
import ensurepip
ensurepip.bootstrap()
import pipThis code uses a try-except block to catch the ImportError that is raised when the "pip" module is not found. If the error is caught, the script uses the "ensurepip" module to bootstrap pip, and then imports pip again. This allows the script to continue running even if pip is not already installed on the system.
Note: The above code snippet works for Python 3.4 and above. In Python 3.4+, pip is pre-installed by default, making this workaround largely unnecessary for modern environments. Additionally, ensurepip.bootstrap() is deprecated in Python 3.12+; for newer versions, run python -m ensurepip in your terminal instead.
