  • Well if the file would be created by hand, that’s very cumbersome.

    But what is sometimes done to create it automatically is using

    pip freeze > requirements. txt

    inside your virtual environment.

    You said I don’t need to create this file? How else will I distribute my environment so that it can be easily used? There are a lot of other standard, like setup.py etc, so it’s only one possibility. But the fact that there are multiple competing standard shows that how pip handles this is kinds bad.
