How to Install pip for python 3 7 on Ubuntu 18

Question

EDIT 18 02  Since I still don t have a solution  I m updating with what I know so far   I ve installed python 3 7 successfully   I can install modules using pip  or pip3  but those modules are installed in Python 3 6  Comes with ubuntu   Therefore I can t import those modules in python 3 7  get a module not found  Python 3 7 doesn t recognize pip pip3  so I can t install through pip pip3 I need python 3 7  --  I ve installed Python 3 7 on my Ubuntu 18 04 machine  Following this instructions in case it s relevant       Download   Python 3 7 from Python Website  1   on Desktop and manually   unzip it  on Desktop Installation   Open Terminal  ctrl  shift T   Go to the Extracted folder   cd   Desktop Python-3 7 0     configure   make   sudo make install       Making Python 3 7 default Python      sudo vim    bashrc press i on the last and new line - Type alias python  python3 7 press Esc type - to save and exit vim  wq now type   source    bashrc       From here  https   www quora com How-can-I-upgrade-Python-3-6-to-3-7-in-Ubuntu-18-04   I ve downloaded several modules through pip install module but when I try to import them  I get a ModuleNotFoundError  No module names  xx   So I did some research and apparently when used pip to install  it installed in the modules in previous version of Python   Somewhere  probably a question in SO  I found a suggestion to install the module using python3 7 -m pip install module but then I get  usr local bin python3 7  no module named pip   Now I m stuck  pip is installed  but apparently not for Python 3 7  I m assuming that if I can install pip for Python 3 7  I can run the pip install command and get the modules I need  If that is the case  how can I install pip for python 3 7  since it s already installed

For those who intend to use venv   If you don t already have pip for Python 3   sudo apt install python3-pip   Install venv package   sudo apt install python3 7-venv   Create virtual environment  which will be bootstrapped with pip by default    python3 7 -m venv  path to new virtual environment   To activate the virtual environment  source the appropriate script for the current shell  from the bin directory of the virtual environment  The appropriate scripts for the different shells are   bash zsh     activate  fish     activate fish  csh tcsh     activate csh  For example  if using bash   source  path to new virtual environment bin activate   Optionally  to update pip for the virtual environment  while it is activated    pip install --upgrade pip   When you want to deactivate the virtual environment   deactivate

I used apt-get to install python3 7 in ubuntu18 04  The installations are as follows        install python3 7   sudo apt-get install python3 7     install pip3  It should be noted that this may install pip3 for python3 6      sudo apt-get install python3-pip     change the default of python3 for python3 7  This is where the magic is  which will make the pip3 refer to python3 7     sudo update-alternatives --install  usr bin python3 python3  usr bin python3 7 1   Hope it works for you

I installed pip3 using  python3 7 -m pip install pip   But upon using pip3 to install other dependencies  it was using python3 6   You can check the by typing pip3 --version  Hence  I used pip3 like this  stated in one of the above answers    python3 7 -m pip install  lt module gt    or use it like this   python3 7 -m pip install -r requirements txt   I made a bash alias for later use in    bashrc file as alias pip3  python3 7 -m pip   If you use alias  don t forget to source    bashrc after making the changes and saving it

pip3 not pip  You can create an alias like you did with python3 if you like

In general  don t do this  pip install package  because  as you have correctly noticed  it s not clear what Python version you re installing package for  Instead  if you want to install package for Python 3 7  do this  python3 7 -m pip install package  Replace package with the name of whatever you re trying to install  Took me a surprisingly long time to figure it out  too  The docs about it are here  Your other option is to set up a virtual environment  Once your virtual environment is active  executable names like python and pip will point to the correct ones

A quick add-on to mpenkov s answer above  didn t want this to get lost in the comments   For me  I had to install pip for 3 6 first  sudo apt install python3-pip   now you can install python 3 7  sudo apt install python3 7   and then I could install pip for 3 7  python3 7 -m pip install pip   and as a bonus  to install other modules just preface with   python3 7 -m pip install  lt module gt    EDIT 1  12 2019    I know this is obvious for most   but if you want python 3 8  just substitute python3 8 in place of python3 7  EDIT 2  5 2020    For those that are able to upgrade  Python 3 8 is available out-of-the-box for Ubuntu 20 04 which was released a few weeks ago

How about simply add-apt-repository ppa deadsnakes ppa apt-get update apt-get install python3 7-dev alias pip3 7  quot python3 7 -m pip quot   Now you have the command pip3 7  separately from pip3

User · Answer

To install all currently supported python versions  python 3 6 is already pre-installed  including pip for Ubuntu 18 04 do the following   To install python3 5 and python3 7  use the deadsnakes ppa   sudo add-apt-repository ppa deadsnakes ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install python3 5 sudo apt-get install python3 7   Install python2 7 via distribution packages   sudo apt install python-minimal    on Ubuntu 18 04 python-minimal maps to python2 7   To install pip use   sudo apt install python-pip    on Ubuntu 18 04 this refers to pip for python2 7 sudo apt install python3-pip    on Ubuntu 18 04 this refers to pip for python3 6 python3 5 -m pip install pip   this will install pip only for the current user python3 7 -m pip install pip   I used it for setting up a CI-chain for a python project with tox and Jenkins

Combining the answers from  mpenkon and  dangel  this is what worked for me   sudo apt install python3-pip  python3 7 -m pip install pip   Step  1 is required  assuming you don t already have pip for python3  for step  2 to work  It uses pip for Python3 6 to install pip for Python 3 7 apparently
