pipenv with some packages from conda

It is possible to specify dependencies inside the Pipfile that are installed from conda instead of pypi? Somethink like this:

[[source]]
url = 'https://pypi.python.org/simple'
verify_ssl = true
name = 'pypi'

[[source]]
url = 'https://repo.continuum.io/...'
verify_ssl = true
name = 'conda'

When I set up a new computer I install anaconda, then install some packages with conda install (e.g. numpy, scipy, cython, …) and the remaining ones I install with pip install. I was able to get pipenv working with conda but I do not know how I can define the dependencies from conda (Or if it is possible). Searching for an answer to my question I can only find people that mention that conda does not work with pipenv.

Describe your environment

1. OS Type Ubuntu 16.04
2. Python version: $ python -V Python 3.6.3 :: Anaconda custom (64-bit)
3. Pipenv version: $ pipenv --version pipenv, version 9.0.3

Note that “pipenv with a conda backend” would be comparable to an arrangement along the lines of “pipenv with an apt-get backend”: it’s confusing different layers of the packaging stack in a way that doesn’t make logistical sense.

However, the conda folks are open to the idea of transparently managing wheel archives from PyPI as if they were conda packages: https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/5202

That approach would better respect the layering described in http://www.curiousefficiency.org/posts/2016/09/python-packaging-ecosystem.html#platform-management-or-plugin-management, which points out that pip (and hence tools based on it, like pipenv) is a language specific plugin manager for Python runtimes, whereas tools like conda are language independent component managers for the construction of larger software systems.

I mean, there’s nothing stopping you from:

$ pipenv --python /path/to/condaenv/python --site-packages
$ pipenv install
