Brodriguez: Create PipEnv page

Create PipEnv page

New page

PipEnv is an attempt to make Python Pip behave more like [https://getcomposer.org/ Composer] (from Php/Laravel).

In other words, this is meant to streamline project package/environment management. You tell PipEnv what packages you care about, and it effectively installs + manages versions (and sub-dependency versions) for you.<br>
This data is stored in files called {{ ic |PipFile}} and {{ ic |PipFile.lock}}, at your project root.

Official docs can be found at https://docs.pipenv.org/

This page shows quick, basic options for ease of use.

== Linux Setup ==
Before using PipEnv, it's recommended to add some additional settings to the local system environment.
To do this, edit the user's local {{ ic |.bashrc}} file (or equivalent) and add the following:

Update terminal path to find PipEnv:
export PATH="$PATH:/home/<username>/.local/bin"

Update PipEnv settings to always use venv folders in project:
export PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=true

Reminder to restart terminal after saving changes.

== Important Commands ==

=== Install Commands ===
Install PipEnv for Mac:
brew install pipenv

Install PipEnv for Linux:
python3 -m pip install --user pipenv

=== Project Setup Commands ===
{{ note | For the below commands, you can also add the {{ ic |--dev}} flag, which tells PipEnv to install optional "dev-packages" to the local Python environment. Aka, those dependencies that were defined in the "development section" of the PipFile.}}

Install current project dependencies to the local Python environment, as listed in PipEnv files:
pipenv sync

Update project dependencies listed in PipEnv files, then install them to the local python environment:
pipenv install

Update a specific dependency (warning - may also update unrelated dependencies):
pipenv update <dependency>
