If I run pip install Django I get
Requirement already satisfied: Django in
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
I'd like to use python3.6 instead (which is already installed in /usr/bin/python3.6). What's the correct pip syntax to install the last version of Django on python 3.6?
You have to install pip3 :
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
Then, you have to work with venv
pip3 -p python3.6 virtualenv name
And you have to write :
pip3 install Django
#or specific version
pip3 install Django==1.10.5
If you have pip3 then directly use
pip3 install Django
Else try to use virtualenv for your python version as :
pip -p python3.6 virtualenv name
then you can install any version of Django on it.
You can install it globally as others suggested, but the recommended way to install it is to use virtualenv or venv. In case you are using virtualenv (with virtualenvwrapper), just do
mkvirtualenv --python="path to python3 executable" "environment name"
pip install django
Inside virtual environment pip would be pip3 by default and so is python.
As is common with these sort of pip issues, before you install, check where pip is pointing to with pip -V.
If that points to Python 2, you can then try pip3 -V; if that points to an older version of Python 3, go for pip3.6.
As a final approach, you can always go through python itself with python3.6 -m pip install ...
It means you already installed django in python2.7.
You can install django for python3 via:
pip3 install Django
You can also activate virtualenv, and run pip install Django

So i'm trying to implement stripe on a Django app and i'm having issues.
I installed Stripe using pip3 -install stripe and it downloaded. However when I run the server it says
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'stripe'
So looking around and on this I think I found some sort of an answer.
https://nomodulenamed.com/a/I-have-installed-the-package-using-pip#fail-to-install
Are pip and python consistent?
Seems like the answer is no.
pip3 -V returned pip 20.0.2 from /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pip (python 3.7)
and
python3 -V returned Python 3.8.2
It seems that the easy fix is using python3 -m pip3 -V but that returns No module named pip3
and
python3 -m pip -V returns pip 20.1 from /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip (python 3.8)
but pip -V returns zsh: command not found: pip
which leaves me quite confused
more over i'm suppose to do # install your package
python -m pip <your-package-name>
so what goes in the place of
<your-package-name>
and I'm I suppose to use pip of pip3 since I use pip3 to install thing.
Since you can have more than one Python2 installation and more than one Python3 installation available on your machine, your question is better answered by understanding virtual environments.
It is precisely the reason why virtual environments exist!
when you create a python3 virtual environment there is no need to call pip3 as it is the default pip.
start by creating your virtual env (Assuming you have virtualenv installed ... if not install it on linux ubuntu by calling
sudo apt-get install virtualenv
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
python3 -m venv env
source bin/env/activate
pip install <yourpackage>
but I believe you are on macOS since you are getting zsh error,
fix your installation by using homebrew
brew install python3
pip3 install virtualenv
virtualenv -p python3 <path-to your-project>
source <path-to your-project>/bin/activate
I am on Windows 10 and just installed Python 3.7.4. I installed virtualenv using pip install virtualenv, and i got the message that i installed 16.7.2 while 19.2.1 is available. I then used python -m pip install --upgrade pip to upgrade.
Here is the issue: when i type pip freeze on Powershell, i am getting this:
virtualenv==16.7.2
but when i type pip --version, i am getting this:
pip 19.2.1 from c:\users\user1\python\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.7)
Can you please let me know why pip freeze still shows the old version?
Thanks.
pip and virtualenv are 2 different cases where pip is mainly used for installing python packages and virtualenv for utilizing virtual environments while development.
The following command updates only pip not virtual env
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
If you think you still need to upgrade virtualenv (of course if a new version is available). Please follow the following syntax without specifying a version.
pip install [package] --upgrade
I'm trying to install modules such as gitpython into my Python3 directory however when I run:
Pip install gitpython it automatically downloads it into python2.7
I've tried specify the Python3 directory but it says the the library has already been installed.
Requirement already satisfied: gitpython in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (2.1.11)
Problem is when I try to call from git import repo my Python3 can't find the module.
Is there anyway to get pip to install my libraries to Python3 as a default, can I just uninstall Python 2.7 to save problems?
I run
sudo apt install python3-pip
and it states it is already installed, so I run sudo pip3 install gitpython and it says Command 'pip3' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install python3-pip
SOLUTION
sudo apt-get remove python3-pip; sudo apt-get install python3-pip
It depends of your version of pip. But I think that python3-pip may do the trick.
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
sudo pip3 install MODULE_NAME
You should use pip3 to install your packages in your python3 environment. thus instead of installing with pip use pip3 install gitpython
You can try to see the version of python with:
python --version
if the result is python 2.7, that means that your environment variable for python3 needs to be set.
After that you can try:
python -m pip install package_name
I hope it will help you =)

You should use python3 venv Python 3 venv
python3 -m venv /path/virtual/environment
source /path/virtual/environment/bin/activate
or use pip3 to installing any libraries for python 3
$ pip3 install 'some library'
You should create virtual environment for python3. using:
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 <VIRTUAL_ENV NAME>
Then activate it using:
source <VIRTUAL_ENV NAME>/bin/activate
Then install your dependency(gitpython in your case) into that.
In my ec2 machine i need to run a django project,
I do the below thinks:
Install python 3.4:
sudo yum install python34
ok, now i create a virtual enviroment for python 3:
virtualenv -p python3 .venv3
at this point activate my venv:
source .venv3/bin/activate
all done!
Now i have to install django:
pip install django
the installation was ok but when i try to check my django version:
python -c "import django; print(django.get_version())"
system return the error "No module name django found"
How is possible?
In my machine there is also python 2.7 installed.
I try outside the virtualenv to remove django with:
sudo python -m pip uninstall django
all done, but in my .venv3 enviroment the issue is still present.
How can i fix the problem?
i also tried to reinstall django like this:
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall django
response:

Why django isn't installed?
thanks in advance
The answer to your question depends on your version of python so you need to install pip3
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
Then, you have to create a virtual environment with venv
pip3 -p python3.6 virtualenv name
After that install Django:
pip3 install Django
As in the recent version, you can use
apt-get install python3-django
Or you can simply do the follwing:
sudo apt-get install python3 virtualenvwrapper
mkvirtualenv <venv> -p python3
workon <venv>
--system-site-packages
pip install Django
I had python 2.6.1 because it was old I decide to install python 3.3.2 but, when I type "python" in my mac it prints it is version 2.6.1 and when I type python3 it shows that this is 3.3.2. I installed django 1.6 but when I check, understand that it is installed for old version of python (python 2.6.1). I want to instal it for my python 3.3.2 what should I do? any way to uninstall python 2.6.1 and when I enter python in terminal it's version be 3.3.2? I have mac os 10.6.8
You could use pip to manage the package for you. If pip is not installed.
use
sudo easy_install pip
to install it. Then
pip3 install django
would install django for your python3.
Use python3 to call python version 3 on the command line.
For projects you can use virtual environments:
$ python # this will be version 2
$ python3 -m venv myenv
$ source myenv/bin/activate
$ python # this will be version 3
where myenv will be the folder that hosts the libraries and binaries for that virtual environment. It will automcatically use the python version that was used to initialize this venv - in this case python3. This has the effect that once you activate the venv you can use python there and it will be version 3.
to setup django in pyton3
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
sudo pip3 install virtualenv
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.X venv
source venv/bin/activate
congrats you have setup python3 django and now have many packages to work with
Note: X stands for the version of python
To install django for python3, you need to use pip3 instead of pip.
python defaults to python2.
pip defaults to pip for python2.
So, when you install pip using whatever package manager you have, you are essentially installing pip for python2.
To remove Python2: $sudo apt remove python
To install pip for python3:
$sudo apt install python3-pip
To install pip for python2:
$sudo apt install python-pip
Note: I am using apt package manager. You should use the package manager for your OS.
