+---- Thread: [Python] pip won't install dependencies in virtualenv (/showthread.php?tid=6200514)
pip won't install dependencies in virtualenv - ThinWhiteDuke - Apr 7, 2022
I've created a python script to host a Discord Bot in a virtualenv I type in pip list to see which tools I have and see:
pip 22.0.4
setuptools 58.1.0
I need both the requests and discord.py modules so I try to install using sudo pip install requests and in the Terminal I get the message:
Requirement already satisfied: requests in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (2.22.0)
pip list again shows only:
pip 22.0.4
setuptools 58.1.0
any pip installations seem to be installing in the main OS not the virtualenv I tried using google and seen a couple of similar article of this subject but nothing that solves my issue, So I'm here asking the awesome people of HF

You do activate enviroment before running pip?
So you created venv like so: python3.10 -m venv venv
than activate: . venv/bin/activate
and install requests: pip3 install requests

Yes that's the way I did it
1 created a venv
2 activated the venv
3 tried pip install requests but didn't install anything
