Computer Notes/Python/PIP

Adding a local python mirror

Windows

• Press Win + R, type %APPDATA%, and hit Enter. (This opens your AppData\Roaming folder).

• Look for a folder named pip. If it’s not there, right-click, select New > Folder, and name it pip.

• Go inside that pip folder.

• Right-click, select New > Text Document.

• Name it pip.ini (make sure you delete the .txt extension at the end).

• Open it in Notepad, paste your mirror configuration, and save it.

Linux / Mac

• mkdir -p ~/.config/pip
• nano ~/.config/pip/pip.conf
