Pip to Rye

2024-06-12

Suppose you have a Python project with a requirements.txt file and no pyproject.toml.

The following creates:

• A pyproject.toml from your requirements.txt file
• An active Rye virtual environment called .venv in your project

rye init --virtual -r requirements.txt

Then, instead of pip installing new packages, use rye add to add them to your pyproject.toml and install them in your .venv. For example:

rye add "air==0.3.0"
