It works for packages installed globally on a machine as well as in a virtualenv. Since `pip freeze` shows all dependencies as a flat list, finding out which are the top level packages and which packages do they depend on requires some effort. It\'s also tedious to resolve conflicting dependencies that could have been installed because older version of `pip` didn\'t have true dependency resolution[^1]. `pipdeptree` can help here by identifying conflicting dependencies installed in the environment. To some extent, `pipdeptree` is inspired by the `lein deps :tree` command of [Leiningen]. ## Installation `bash pip install pipdeptree ` ## Running in virtualenvs `New in ver. 2.0.0` If you want to run pipdeptree in the context of a particular virtualenv, you can specify the `--python` option. Note that this capability has been recently added in version `2.0.0`. Alternatively, you may also install pipdeptree inside the virtualenv and then run it from there. As of version `2.21.0`, you may also pass `--python auto`, where it will attempt to detect your virtual environment and grab the interpreter from there. It will fail if it is unable to detect one. ## Usage and examples To give you a brief idea, here is the output of `pipdeptree` compared with `pip freeze`: ```bash $ pip freeze Flask==0.10.1 itsdangerous==0.24 Jinja2==2.11.2 -e git+git@github.com:naiquevin/lookupy.git@cdbe30c160e1c29802df75e145ea4ad903c05386#egg=Lookupy MarkupSafe==0.22 pipdeptree @ file:///private/tmp/pipdeptree-2.0.0b1-py3-none-any.whl Werkzeug==0.11.2 ``` And now see what `pipdeptree` outputs, ```bash $ pipdeptree Warning!!! Possibly conflicting dependencies found: * Jinja2==2.11.2 - MarkupSafe [required: >=0.23, installed: 0.22] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flask==0.10.1 - itsdangerous [required: >=0.21, installed: 0.24] - Jinja2 [required: >=2.4, installed: 2.11.2] - MarkupSafe [required: >=0.23, installed: 0.22] - Werkzeug [required: >=0.7, installed: 0.11.2] Lookupy==0.1 pipdeptree==2.0.0b1 - pip [required: >=6.0.0, installed: 20.1.1] setuptools==47.1.1 wheel==0.34.2 ``` ## Is it possible to find out why a particular package is installed? `New in ver. 0.5.0` Yes, there\'s a `--reverse` (or simply `-r`) flag for this. To find out which packages depend on a particular package(s), it can be combined with `--packages` option as follows: ```bash $ pipdeptree --reverse --packages itsdangerous,MarkupSafe Warning!!! Possibly conflicting dependencies found: * Jinja2==2.11.2 - MarkupSafe [required: >=0.23, installed: 0.22] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ itsdangerous==0.24 - Flask==0.10.1 [requires: itsdangerous>=0.21] MarkupSafe==0.22 [FILE:124:distinfo] e08ee7eb8152c0d67aee308c8477a489ab0af1a4aafe988d9d2d9998f78a24a6 34017 python-src/pipdeptree-2.30.0-py3-none-any.whl
