I'm trying to fix up one of my virtualenvs - I'd like to reset all of the installed libraries back to the ones that match production.

Is there a quick and easy way to do this with pip?

You can run the following command to remove all the packages pip uninstall all it saves your virtual environment:-

  pip freeze | xargs pip uninstall -y

To remove all the packages at the same time you can also use the following piece of command as it will work in all the OSs:-

  pip uninstall -r requirements.txt -y
