Install, uninstall, and upgrade packages | PyCharm Documentation
When a newer version of a package is detected, PyCharm marks it with the Upgrade icon. By default, the Latest version column shows only stable versions of the packages. If you want to extend the scope of the latest available versions to any pre-release versions (such as beta or release candidate), click Show early releases. In the list of packages, select the package to be upgraded.

Why is pip not working in the PyCharm terminal?
This usually happens because the terminal hasn't 'activated' your project's virtual environment. Ensure that the '(venv)' prefix is visible in your terminal prompt. If it isn't, go to Settings > Tools > Terminal and ensure 'Activate virtualenv' is checked. You can also manually run 'pip' by using the full path to the scripts folder within your project directory.

What is the difference between pip and conda in PyCharm?
Pip is Python's official package manager for PyPI, while Conda is a cross-language package and environment manager. In PyCharm, Conda allows you to install non-Python dependencies (like C++ libraries) more easily. PyCharm's 'Python Packages' tool window handles both seamlessly depending on your active interpreter type.

I'm not sure if this is where I need to put this but I'm having issues with an older package and I'm trying to update pip but I keep getting an error as follows...

pip install --upgrade pip

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/home/*Me*/.local/bin/pip", line 7, in <module>

from pip._internal import main

ImportError: No module named _internal

I have no idea what this means but I'm trying to update some packages in PyCharm. Hopefully someone knows how to fix this. I'm running pip 10.0.1 if that helps. Trying to upgrade to 19.0.3.

r/pycharm on Reddit: Unable to upgrade PIP and SetupTools in the global venv for all future PyCharm projects
January 23, 2019 -

I was hoping I could get some help. I found a similar issue here, but it didn't get resolved. Only work around solutions are offered up right now.

https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360000530279-unable-to-upgrade-the-pip-version-?page=1#community_comment_360000326859

I have had issues getting PIP and SetupTools to upgrade in my projects. I was able to figure those out but would like to solve it once and not have to keep doing it again and again. My issue is that I can't seem to upgrade PIP to the latest version now 19.0.1 and SetupTools to 40.6.3 and have that update be in place for all future projects. I have gone to command line and browsed to the path of my Python interpreter and performed the upgrades, they are successful. When I open up PyCharm it confirms they packages are upgraded. That is a neat trick and works well.

What isn't working and seems to be a mystery so far is where is PyCharm pulling the "template" or model venv when creating new projects? Where is it so I can upgrade that location?

Thanks for your time.
