Windows下使用pip安装python包是报错－UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xcb in position 0

先交待下开发环境：

  操作系统：Windows 7

  Python版本：2.7.9

  Pip版本：6.1.1

  其他环境忽略

在windows下使用pip下载python包，出现如下错误

  UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xcb in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

'UnicodeDecodeError'这个词已经暴露了这个问题是个编码问题

什么原因导致了这样的问题？在我的电脑上出现这个问题的原因是由于我的用户目录是中文的，pip在下载的时候调用了这样一行代码

temp_dir = tempfile.mkdtemp('-unpack', 'pip-')

pip把下载的临时文件存放在了用户临时文件中，这个目录一般是C:Users用户名AppDataLocalTemp，目录名中有中文，显然ascii这种编码是不支持的

那问题要怎么解决呢？有两种方法解决：

1、把上面的temp_dir那段代码修改一个不包含中文的目录，修改这段代码的文件位置在D:Python27Libsite-packagespip-6.1.1-py2.7.eggpipdownload.py(位置由个人python安装目录决定)

2、修改编码为gbk，修改D:Python27Lib tpath.py(位置由个人python安装目录决定)文件中的def join(path, *paths)函数，在函数内第一行加入

# Join two (or more) paths.
def join(path, *paths):
    """Join two or more pathname components, inserting "\" as needed."""
    reload(sys)
    sys.setdefaultencoding('gbk')
    result_drive, result_path = splitdrive(path)
    for p in paths:
        p_drive, p_path = splitdrive(p)
        if p_path and p_path[0] in '\/':
            # Second path is absolute
            if p_drive or not result_drive:
                result_drive = p_drive
            result_path = p_path
            continue
        elif p_drive and p_drive != result_drive:
            if p_drive.lower() != result_drive.lower():
                # Different drives => ignore the first path entirely
                result_drive = p_drive
                result_path = p_path
                continue
            # Same drive in different case
            result_drive = p_drive
        # Second path is relative to the first
        if result_path and result_path[-1] not in '\/':
            result_path = result_path + '\'
        result_path = result_path + p_path
    ## add separator between UNC and non-absolute path
    if (result_path and result_path[0] not in '\/' and
        result_drive and result_drive[-1:] != ':'):
        return result_drive + sep + result_path
    return result_drive + result_path

注意：

reload(sys)
sys.setdefaultencoding('gbk')

这两行代码是我后加入的

一切准备就绪，重新执行pip安装试试吧

总结：

1、据说python3的默认编码为'utf-8'，可能不存在这种问题，没有实际测试过

2、这次我直接修改了python和pip中的源码，体现了python是脚本语言的特性
