Using pip, is it possible to figure out which version of a package is currently installed?
I know about pip install XYZ --upgrade
but I am wondering if there is anything like pip info XYZ
. If not what would be the best way to tell what version I am currently using.
Check Package Version Python To check which version of a given Python package is installed, use pip show my_package . For example, to check the version of your NumPy installation, run pip show numpy in your CMD/Powershell (Windows), or terminal (macOS/Linux/Ubuntu).
txt file, pip looks for the latest version that satisfies the requirement and installs it. Next, you can upgrade the packages in your requirements file by running the install command with the --upgrade switch or the -U shorthand: Windows. Linux + macOS.
As of pip 1.3, there is a pip show
command.
$ pip show Jinja2 --- Name: Jinja2 Version: 2.7.3 Location: /path/to/virtualenv/lib/python2.7/site-packages Requires: markupsafe
In older versions, pip freeze
and grep
should do the job nicely.
$ pip freeze | grep Jinja2 Jinja2==2.7.3
