Pip will not install a package into my conda env. This is what I have done:
conda create -n myenv python=3.10
conda activate myenv
All good, terminal shows myenv is active.
I am trying to install a non-conda or forge package - called crewai. Therefore I have to use pip.
Running which -a pip returns.
/home/a_shipley/anaconda3/envs/crewai-flows/bin/pip
/home/a_shipley/.local/bin/pip
/usr/bin/pip
/bin/pip
which -a python returns,
/home/a_shipley/anaconda3/envs/crewai-flows/bin/python
/usr/bin/python
/bin/python
python -m pip install crewai==0.70.1 returns already installed.
Requirement already satisfied: crewai==0.70.1 in /home/a_shipley/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages (0.70.1)
crewai is already installed in my home -> pip list crewai is not present in anaconda or my local myenv env.
And, running the right pip:
(crewai-flows) a_shipley@ShipleyAI:~/Conda_env/crewai-flows-crash-course$ /home/a_shipley/anaconda3/envs/crewai-flows/bin/pip install crewai==0.70.1
Requirement already satisfied: crewai==0.70.1 in /home/a_shipley/.local/lib/python3.10/site- packages (0.70.1)
I am not very familiar with Conda but I am guessing running conda activate myenv activates the Python virtual environment managed by Conda. Does your prompt change in this fashion?
prompt $ conda activate myenv
(myenv) prompt $
Now just run,
(myenv) prompt $ which python
This should tell you the path of the current python command,
path/to/myenv/bin/python
Take a note if something like myenv appears in the path. This is your hint that you are being shown the path to your conda managed environment.
Now just run,
path/to/myenv/bin/python -m pip install crewai==0.70.1
And check with,
path/to/myenv/bin/python -m pip list
Hope this helps.
