How to pip install a package with min and max version range?

Question

I\'m wondering if there\'s any way to tell pip, specifically in a requirements file, to install a package with both a minimum version (pip install package>=0.2

Answer 1

You can do:

$ pip install "package>=0.2,<0.3"

And pip will look for the best match, assuming the version is at least 0.2, and less than 0.3.

This also applies to pip requirements files. See the full details on version specifiers in PEP 440.
