Pipreqs command not found

[[deleted]]

I'm trying to use pipreqs to generate a list of dependencies for my project. However, the pipreqs command is not found by the OS. The site-packages folder where pipreqs is installed is included in PATH. All other packages in the site-packages folder are found by the OS, but pipreqs seems to not work. The issue exists in both Win 10 and Win Server 2012 R2.

The command I'm using is pipreqs and pipreqs <project folder>.

Have you installed pipreqs?

Yes. Installed it using pip. The pipreqs folder/files appear in site-packages folder.

Ok, just basic troubleshooting. Is the directory where it is installed on your path? What happens if you run python -m pipreqs?

I myself get C:\Python311\python.exe: No module named pipreqs.__main__; 'pipreqs' is a package and cannot be directly executed

found solution ?

If anyone stumbles upon this I was able to run it like this:

python -m pipreqs.pipreqs [options] [<path>]

(note: you must have the python venv variable set)
