Inputs

    
name:
    description:
    - The name of a Python library to install or the url(bzr+,hg+,git+,svn+) of the remote
      package.
    - This can be a list (since 2.2) and contain version specifiers (since 2.7).
    type: list

chdir:
    description:
    - cd into this directory before running the command
    type: path
    version_added: '1.3'
    version_added_collection: ansible.builtin

state:
    choices:
    - absent
    - forcereinstall
    - latest
    - present
    default: present

    - The 'forcereinstall' option is only available in Ansible 2.1 and above.
    type: str

umask:
    description:
    - The system umask to apply before installing the pip package. This is useful, for
      example, when installing on systems that have a very restrictive umask by default
      (e.g., "0077") and you want to pip install packages which are to be used by all
      users. Note that this requires you to specify desired umask mode as an octal string,
      (e.g., "0022").
    type: str
    version_added: '2.1'
    version_added_collection: ansible.builtin

version:
    description:
    - The version number to install of the Python library specified in the I(name) parameter.

    - Pass the editable flag.
    type: bool
    version_added: '2.0'
    version_added_collection: ansible.builtin

executable:
    description:
    - The explicit executable or pathname for the pip executable, if different from the
      Ansible Python interpreter. For example C(pip3.3), if there are both Python 2.7
      and 3.3 installations in the system and you want to run pip for the Python 3.3 installation.
    - Mutually exclusive with I(virtualenv) (added in 2.1).
    - Does not affect the Ansible Python interpreter.
    - The setuptools package must be installed for both the Ansible Python interpreter
      and for the version of Python specified by this option.

virtualenv:
    description:
    - An optional path to a I(virtualenv) directory to install into. It cannot be specified
      together with the 'executable' parameter (added in 2.1). If the virtualenv does
      not exist, it will be created before installing packages. The optional virtualenv_site_packages,
      virtualenv_command, and virtualenv_python options affect the creation of the virtualenv.
    type: path

    version_added_collection: ansible.builtin

virtualenv_command:
    default: virtualenv
    description:
    - The command or a pathname to the command to create the virtual environment with.
      For example C(pyvenv), C(virtualenv), C(virtualenv2), C(~/bin/virtualenv), C(/usr/local/bin/virtualenv).
    type: path
    version_added: '1.1'
    version_added_collection: ansible.builtin

virtualenv_site_packages:
    default: 'no'
    description:
    - Whether the virtual environment will inherit packages from the global site-packages
      directory.  Note that if this setting is changed on an already existing virtual
      environment it will not have any effect, the environment must be deleted and newly
      created.
