#. List packages installed in editable mode
When some packages are installed in editable mode, ``pip list`` outputs an
additional column that shows the directory where the editable project is
located (i.e. the directory that contains the ``pyproject.toml`` or
``setup.py`` file).
.. tab:: Unix/macOS
.. code-block:: console
$ python -m pip list
Package Version Editable project location
---------------- -------- -------------------------------------
pip 21.2.4
pip-test-package 0.1.1 /home/you/.venv/src/pip-test-package
setuptools 57.4.0
wheel 0.36.2
.. tab:: Windows
.. code-block:: console
C:\> py -m pip list
Package Version Editable project location
---------------- -------- ----------------------------------------
pip 21.2.4
pip-test-package 0.1.1 C:\Users\You\.venv\src\pip-test-package
setuptools 57.4.0
wheel 0.36.2
The json format outputs an additional ``editable_project_location`` field.
.. tab:: Unix/macOS
.. code-block:: console
$ python -m pip list --format=json | python -m json.tool
[
{
"name": "pip",
"version": "21.2.4",
},
{
"name": "pip-test-package",
"version": "0.1.1",
"editable_project_location": "/home/you/.venv/src/pip-test-package"
},
{
"name": "setuptools",
"version": "57.4.0"
},
{
"name": "wheel",
"version": "0.36.2"
}
]
.. tab:: Windows
.. code-block:: console
C:\> py -m pip list --format=json | py -m json.tool
[
{
"name": "pip",
"version": "21.2.4",
},
{
"name": "pip-test-package",
"version": "0.1.1",
"editable_project_location": "C:\Users\You\.venv\src\pip-test-package"
},
{
"name": "setuptools",
"version": "57.4.0"
},
{
"name": "wheel",
"version": "0.36.2"
}
]
.. note::
Contrary to the ``freeze`` command, ``pip list --format=freeze`` will not
report editable install information, but the version of the package at the
time it was installed.
