How to use multiple urls with PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL

I want to configure my pip using environmental variables. I already have two pip index urls. So I'm already using PIP_INDEX_URL and PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL variables.

PIP_INDEX_URL="https://example.com"
PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL="https://example2.com"

But I want to add one more index url. I don't know how

I tried to add it with ;

PIP_INDEX_URL="https://example.com"
PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL="https://example2.com;https://example3.com"

But it didn't seem to work

Solution

  • Pip expects an empty space ( ) to separate the values in environment variables. In this case, for example:

    PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL="https://example2.com https://example3.com"

    See pip's documentation section "Environment variables".
