Python“ pip”工具从哪里获得安装的软件包？

Question

I have installed a few packages using Command Prompt on Windows. For example:

To upgrade pip version I used the command:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

To install discord.py package I used the command:

python -m pip install -U discord.py

Out of curiosity... How do these commands work? From where do they get downloaded?

Answer 1

Assuming you're asking where the packages come from...from the Cheese Shop, of course :)

Python Package Index The Python Package Index (abbreviated as PyPI) and also known as the Cheese Shop is the official third-party software repository for Python. It primarily hosts Python packages in the form of archives called 'sdists' (source distributions) or precompiled wheels (you will see this later). In a sentence: PyPI is as a giant online repository of modules that are accepted by the Python community.
