How can I get a list of locally installed Python modules?

Question

I would like to get a list of Python modules, which are in my Python installation (UNIX server).

How can you get a list of Python modules installed in your computer?

Answer 1

Works Regardless of Pip Version

Run the following in your python editor or IPython:

import pkg_resources
installed_packages = {d.project_name: d.version for d in pkg_resources.working_set}
print(installed_packages)

Read other answers and pulled together this combo, which is quickest and easiest inside Python.

Find the specific Packages

Conveniently you can then get items from your dict easily, i.e.

installed_packages['pandas'] >> '1.16.4'
