Pip installing packages in global environment instead of virtualenv on Windows

问题

I am using pycharm and for that i am using python virtualenv.

I activate virtualenv using penv\Scripts\activate.bat command. But when i run pip install requests, it is getting installed in global folder instead of local virtualenv folder. I am not able to understand why is the case so.

Output of where python is as follow:

E:\app-backend\penv\Scripts\python.exe
C:\Users\Hardik\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\python.exe

Output of where pip is as follow:

E:\app-backend\penv\Scripts\pip.exe
C:\Users\Hardik\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Scripts\pip.exe

I have tried it again and again but it always installs any package in global folder. But when I run any command using E:\app-backend\penv\Scripts\pip.exe install of pip, it installs that package in local virtualenv.

Can anyone tell me what is the case happening here?

回答1:

You should run python from your virtual enviromment. For example:

E:\app-backend\penv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip list

But you should activate your venv first:

E:\app-backend\penv\Scripts\activate
