Hello all,

I am having a little bit of trouble with something on my pipeline. I am setting up something new that relies on virtual envs using pip.

When I use pip install -e to get into a package edit mode I have a new src folder that I can edit from.

When I am done however I have to manually delete the src folder. Is there a way for pip to handle this and do all the cleanup automatically?

cheers,

Ben

I don't really understand the workflow completely, from this description, but does it not work to just use 'pip uninstall'? 


cheers,

Ben

I will try that as soon as I get into the office. I am very new to the kind of work flow I have been introduced to. I will update you on your proposed solution.
