How to freeze packages installed only in the virtual environment?


How to freeze packages installed only in the virtual environment, that is, without the global ones?


Solution

  • You need to use the -l or --local option to freeze only the local packages (and not the global ones)

    pip freeze -l > requirements.txt 
    

    Make sure you are working in the virtualenv before doing pip freeze -l.
