In Python, we can configure mirror sources by modifying the pip configuration file. Here are the specific steps:

  1. Change directory to the home directory.
  2. short for “picture-in-picture”
  3. create a directory named “.pip”
  4. .pipe
  5. Change directory to .pip
  6. file named pip.conf
  7. Open pip.conf
  8. The pip configuration file is called pip.conf.
[global]
index-url = https://pypi.doubanio.com/simple

Here, we use the example of Douban’s mirror source, but you can also choose other mirror sources. If you are overseas, it is recommended to use a mirror source to speed up downloads.

  1. Configuration file for pip
  2. Now, you can use the pip command to install Python packages, which will use the mirror source specified in the configuration file.

I hope this can help you!
