PyCharm giving error while setting up interpreter: no such option: --python

Question

I am trying to create a project in Pycharm and I am getting this error when I use New Environment Using Pipenv, I do think there is no --python options in Pip3, so how do I bypass this in PyCharm and set up my project

Answer 1

Pipenv is different from pip, and you'd have to install Pipenv separately, then point Pycharm at it

https://pipenv.kennethreitz.org/en/latest/install/#installing-pipenv

How to setup pipenv in Pycharm is documented here

https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/pipenv.html

Otherwise, you should chose an option other than Pipenv

Answer 2

pip is package-management system for python. I think what you looking for is to set up a new interpreter/venv

That can be achieved by hitting that button highlighted in the photo
