Install a Python package with pip from a private GitHub Repository

Prerequisite

You must have:

  • read access to the private repository
  • set up authentication to GitHub by ssh key

Install package with pip from a private repository

Consider the case of a private repository on GitHub at the location https://github.com/org/repo.

The command to use is:

pip install git+ssh://git@github.com/org/repo.git

where git@github.com/org/repo.git is almost the part you obtain when clicking on Code>Local>SSH in GitHub.

Note however that the : after git@github.com needs to be replaced by /.

It is as well possible to add it to the requirements.txt file like so:

git+ssh://git@github.com/org/repo.git
