pipenv: Generate a `requirements.txt` (list of dependencies) for a project.
$ pipenv lock --requirements
try on your machine
The command "pipenv lock --requirements" is used in Python to generate a requirements.txt file from the Pipfile.lock. Here's the breakdown of each part of the command:
- "pipenv" is a command-line tool used for managing Python virtual environments and dependencies.
- "lock" is a command in pipenv that locks the current environment by generating a Pipfile.lock file. This file contains the specific versions of all the installed dependencies in the current environment, ensuring reproducibility.
- "--requirements" is an option that tells pipenv lock to output the dependencies in a format compatible with the requirements.txt file.
When you run the command "pipenv lock --requirements," pipenv will read the Pipfile.lock file in the current directory, extract the dependencies, and output them in the same format as a requirements.txt file. The requirements.txt file is commonly used in Python projects to specify the dependencies required for the project to run successfully.
