I have worked out that

  poetry install

will create the script in 

  ~/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs/batch-monitor-JsZvz0Fs-py3.6/bin/batchmon

and that 

  export PYTHONUSERBASE=/home/loris/test
  pip3 install --user /home/loris/gitlab/batch_monitor/dist/batch_monitor-0.2.0-py3-none-any.whl --upgrade

installs things as expected.  I then just need

 export PYTHONPATH=/home/loris/test/lib/python3.6/site-packages

to get the scripts to run.

Cheers,

Loris
