PIPENV(1) pipenv PIPENV(1)

Pipenv uses a set of commands to manage your Project's dependencies and custom scripts. It replaces the use of Makefile, direct calls to pip and python -m venv or virtualenv. to create virtual environments and install packages in them. Pipenv uses two files to do this: Pipfile and Pipfile.lock (which will look familiar if you are used to packages manager like yarn or npm).

The main commands are:

  • install -

    Will create a virtual env and install dependencies (if it does not exist already) The dependencies will be installed inside.

  • install package==0.2 -

    Will add the package in version 0.2 to the virtual environment and to Pipfile and Pipfile.lock

  • uninstall - Will remove the dependency
  • lock - Regenerate Pipfile.lock and updates the dependencies inside it.

These are intended to replace $ pip install usage, as well as manual virtualenv management.

  • graph will show you a dependency graph of your installed dependencies.
  • shell will spawn a shell with the virtualenv activated. This shell can be deactivated by using exit.
  • run will run a given command from the virtualenv, with any arguments forwarded (e.g. $ pipenv run python or $ pipenv run pip freeze).
  • check checks for security vulnerabilities and asserts that PEP 508 requirements are being met by the current environment.
