Question

I\'m using Anaconda for my virtualenvs in win 10. I\'m using git-bash .I\'ve been reading about pipenv recently and decided to give it a try. I installed pipenv on my base c

Answer 1

You can setup Pipenv to use Conda's Python executable and site packages directory (ref).

pipenv --python=$(conda run which python) --site-packages

You can check if you are indeed using your Conda environment in Pipenv:

pipenv run python
>>> import sys
>>> sys.executable, sys.path
# <directories under your Conda environment>

With NumPy installed through Conda, but not Pipenv, you can see that Pipenv will still find NumPy.

conda install numpy
pipenv run python
>>> import numpy as np
>>> np.__file__
# <path under your Conda environment>

When you install NumPy through Pipenv, it will shadow Conda's installation of the the package.

pipenv install numpy
pipenv run python
>>> import numpy as np
>>> np.__file__
# <path under your Pipenv environment>

You can install pipenv within a conda environment initialized with python 3.

$ conda create -n pipenv-test python=3
$ source activate pipenv-test
(pipenv-test)$ pipenv install --python=/home/.../miniconda3/envs/pipenv-test/bin/python
