–code might be what im looking for but if its meant to also be given a github url, its broken

toml.TomlDecodeError: Stuff after closed string. WTF?

But since the docs only mention code, it might as well just work with local code … the docs are kinda vague. 😦

i was trying those commands … all failed pipenv install -c https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation.git#egg=master pipenv install “-c https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation.git#egg=master” pipenv install -e https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation.git#egg=master pipenv install “-e https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation.git#egg=master” pipenv install https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation pipenv install -c https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation pipenv install -e https://github.com/deschler/django-modeltranslation

and: “Stuff after closed string. WTF?” is a weird way oftelling the user about syntax errors in the Pipfile

[kakulukia]

@kakulukia our documentation doesn’t re-cover all of the steps involved in installing packages in python, please see the pip documentation as described.

The “pip documentation” is not even mentioned. Maybe on a subpage but the search feature is gone (think it was there a while ago, no?).

Since pipenv shall replace pip and a potentially new user of python and pipenv in the future might not even know about pip, the docs should either clearly say theres more to discover in the pip docs or in my case feature one line to showcase this install method.

I just scanned the docs and the best hint might be that line:

“These are intended to replace $ pip install usage …”

but it’s still a very wild guess that pipenv actually works the way pip does!

Maybe this would be a solution:

“There are even more hidden but rarely used options when it comes to install packages. Please consult the pip docs (https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/) for anything you might miss here.”

But i don’t even know if that is actually true for all of pips features or when to use pipenv and when to fall back to pip although there might be undocumented functionality in pipenv.

Actually there should not be any undocumented functions in software.

Either its worth documenting or it shall be removed!
