pipdeptree 3.1.1

Command line utility to show dependency tree of packages.

pipdeptree

A command-line utility for displaying installed Python packages as a dependency tree. While pip freeze shows a flat list, pipdeptree reveals which packages are top-level and what they depend on, including conflicting or circular dependencies.

Quick start

pip install pipdeptree
pipdeptree

Flask==0.10.1
  - itsdangerous [required: >=0.21, installed: 0.24]
  - Jinja2 [required: >=2.4, installed: 2.11.2]
    - MarkupSafe [required: >=0.23, installed: 0.22]
  - Werkzeug [required: >=0.7, installed: 0.11.2]

Find out why a package is installed:

pipdeptree --reverse --packages markupsafe

Output as JSON, Mermaid, or Graphviz:

pipdeptree -o json
pipdeptree -o mermaid
pipdeptree -o graphviz-svg > deps.svg

Get a one-block environment health report (counts, depth, conflicts, cycles, licenses, size):

pipdeptree --summary           # aligned text
pipdeptree --summary -o rich   # styled table
pipdeptree --summary -o json   # machine-readable

Inspect a tree without installing it. Resolve requirements against a package index (needs the index extra), or read an already-resolved PEP 751 lock offline:

pip install pipdeptree[index]
pipdeptree from-index "flask"          # i is a shorthand alias
pipdeptree from-index --requirements requirements.txt
pipdeptree from-lock pylock.toml       # l is a shorthand alias

Every render flag above, including --summary, works with both subcommands.
