<p>In this article, I’ll quickly guide you through the installation steps for Python’s package installer <code>pip</code>. But first things first: <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f447.png" alt="?" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<h2>What Is Pip?</h2>
<p class="has-global-color-8-background-color has-background"><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/2705.png" alt="✅" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <code>pip</code> is the package installer for Python used to install and manage software packages (also known as libraries or modules) written in Python. <code>pip</code> makes it easy to install, upgrade, and uninstall packages in your Python environment.</p>
<p>When you install a package with <code>pip</code>, it automatically downloads and installs any dependencies required by the package, making it very convenient for managing your Python projects. You can use <code>pip</code> from the command line but it also integrates with popular development environments like Jupyter, PyCharm, and Visual Studio Code.</p>
<h2>Is Pip Already Included in Python?</h2>
<p><code>pip</code> is included with Python distributions from version 3.4 onwards, so if you have a recent version of Python installed, you should already have <code>pip</code>. </p>
<p class="has-base-background-color has-background"><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/2705.png" alt="✅" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Recommended</strong>: <a href="https://blog.finxter.com/how-to-check-your-python-version/" data-type="post" data-id="1371" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">How to Check Your Python Version?</a></p>
<p>If you don’t have <code>pip</code> installed, you can easily <a href="https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">install</a> it using the steps outlined as follows:</p>
<h2>5 Steps to Install Pip Easily</h2>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="679" src="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-399-1024x679.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1166001" srcset="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-399-1024x679.png 1024w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...00x199.png 300w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...68x509.png 768w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...ge-399.png 1283w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
<p>To install <code>pip</code> in Python, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Check if <code>pip</code> is already installed by running the command “<code>pip -V</code>” in your command prompt or terminal. If you see a version number, <code>pip</code> is already installed. If not, proceed to step 2.</li>
</ol>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="1024" height="570" src="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-397-1024x570.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1165952" srcset="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-397-1024x570.png 1024w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...00x167.png 300w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...68x427.png 768w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...ge-397.png 1114w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
<ol start="2">
<li>Download the <code>get-pip.py</code> script from the official Python website (see below).</li>
<li>Open a command prompt or terminal and navigate to the directory where you downloaded the <code>get-pip.py</code> script.</li>
<li>Run the command <code>python get-pip.py</code> to install <code>pip</code>.</li>
<li>Verify that <code>pip</code> is installed by running the command <code>pip -V</code>.</li>
</ol>
<p>That’s it! You should now have <code>pip</code> installed and ready to use in your Python environment.</p>
<p>In case you weren’t able to complete step 2, here’s how to do it quickly:</p>
<h2>How to Download get-pip.py from Official Python?</h2>
<p>To download the get-pip.py script from the official Python website, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open a web browser and go to the following URL: <a href="https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py">https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py</a></li>
<li>Right-click on the page and select “Save As” (or similar option) to download the file.</li>
<li>Choose a directory to save the file to and click “Save”.</li>
<li>Once the download is complete, navigate to the directory where you saved the file.</li>
</ol>
<p>Alternatively, you can use the following command in your command prompt or terminal to download the file directly:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
</pre>
<p>This will download the get-pip.py file to your current working directory.</p>
<h2>Are There Other Ways to Install Pip?</h2>
<p>Yes, there are a few other ways to install <code>pip</code> depending on your operating system and Python distribution. </p>
<p>Here are the three most common methods:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Package managers</strong>: Many Linux distributions include <code>pip</code> in their package repositories, which means you can use your distribution’s package manager to install it. For example, on Ubuntu, you can use the following command: <code>sudo apt-get install python-pip</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Python installers</strong>: Some Python distributions come with <code>pip</code> pre-installed, such as Anaconda and ActivePython. If you are using one of these distributions, you should already have <code>pip</code> installed.</li>
<li><strong>Python package installer</strong>: Another way to install <code>pip</code> is by using the <code>ensurepip</code> module, which is included with Python since version 3.4. You can use the following command: <code>python -m ensurepip --default-pip</code>.</li>
</ol>
<p>Regardless of the method you choose, it’s always a good idea to verify that <code>pip</code> is installed and working correctly by running the command <code>pip -V</code>.</p>
<h2>How to Upgrade Pip?</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="1024" height="656" src="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-398-1024x656.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1165996" srcset="https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/image-398-1024x656.png 1024w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...00x192.png 300w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...68x492.png 768w, https://blog.finxter.com/wp-content/uplo...ge-398.png 1282w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
</div>
<p>To upgrade pip to the latest version, follow these steps:</p>
<p><strong>Step 1: </strong>Open a command prompt or terminal and enter the following command to upgrade <code>pip</code>:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">python -m pip install --upgrade pip</pre>
<p>The previous command was for Linux or macOS. For Windows, you may want to use:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group=""> py -m pip install --upgrade pip</pre>
<p><strong>Step 2: </strong>Depending on your system configuration, you may need to run this command with administrator privileges. On Linux or macOS, you can use <code>sudo</code> to run the command as root, like this:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">sudo python -m pip install --upgrade pip</pre>
<p><strong>Step 3: </strong><code>pip</code> will download and install the latest version of itself. Once the upgrade is complete, you can verify that <code>pip</code> is up to date by running the command:</p>
<pre class="EnlighterJSRAW" data-enlighter-language="generic" data-enlighter-theme="" data-enlighter-highlight="" data-enlighter-linenumbers="" data-enlighter-lineoffset="" data-enlighter-title="" data-enlighter-group="">pip --version</pre>
<p>This will display the version number of the newly installed pip.</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>
<p>That’s it! You should now have the latest version of <code>pip</code> installed on your system. </p>
<p>Note that it’s a good idea to keep <code>pip</code> up to date to take advantage of bug fixes, security updates, and new features. You can check for updates to individual packages installed with pip using the <code>pip list --outdated</code> command, and upgrade them with <code>pip install --upgrade &lt;package></code>.</p>
