To install pipenv globally, you can use the following steps:

  1. First, make sure that you have Python and pip installed on your system. If you don't have them installed, you can install Python from the official website (https://www.python.org/) and pip using the command pip install pip.
  2. Next, open a terminal window and run the following command to install pipenv:
1
pip install pipenv


  1. Once pipenv is installed, you can use it from any directory on your system. To verify that pipenv has been installed correctly, you can run the following command:
1
pipenv --version


This should print the version number of pipenv that you have installed.

  1. If you want to use pipenv as a command line utility, you may want to add the .local/bin directory to your PATH environment variable. To do this, you can add the following line to your .bashrc or .bash_profile file:
1
export PATH="~/.local/bin:$PATH"


After adding this line and saving the file, you will need to run the following command to update your environment variables:

1
source ~/.bashrc


Alternatively, you can add the ~/.local/bin directory to your PATH variable by running the following command:

1
echo 'export PATH="~/.local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc


This will add the export line to your .bashrc file and update your environment variables automatically.


I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
