Pipenv is a package manager that brings all the best of the packaging world together to the Python world. It's got everything you could need: bundler, composer, npm, cargo, yarn and more all in one convenient package so you can easily set up a working environment.

Pipenv creates and manages a virtualenv automatically, and can add or remove packages from your Pipfile as you install/uninstall packages. It also produces the Pipfile.lock, which is essential for deterministic builds.

Pipenv provides convenient solutions to a number of problems. It allows you to use pip and virtualenv together; use the upcoming Pipfile and Pipfile.lock instead of a problematic requirements.txt; automatically exposes security vulnerabilities; and streamlines your development workflow by loading .env file.

Features

  • Allows for truly deterministic builds, while specifying only what you want
  • Generates and checks file hashes for locked dependencies
  • Installs required Pythons automatically (if pyenv is available)
  • Finds your project home automatically
  • If Pipfile doesn't exist, will generate one automatically
  • Automatically creates a virtualenv in a standard location
  • Automatically adds/removes packages to a Pipfile when they are un/installed
  • If .env files exist, will automatically load them
