nbdev_export ; pip install doesn't work on nbdev with windows

Question

I have downloaded nbdev based on [this tutorial][1] and [the help I got in this post][2]. Before I used nbdev on bash , but now unfortunately I have to work with windows. Now, I have two notebooks, and I want to import function from notebook1 to notebook2. In order to do this , when I used bash I run this command on the CLI:

nbdev_export && pip install ./

However, now ,as I use windows, I tried to run the following command:

nbdev_export ; pip install   

But I receive this error:

(.venv) PS C:\git\my_repo> nbdev_export ; pip install
ERROR: You must give at least one requirement to install (see "pip help install")

[notice] A new release of pip is available: 23.2.1 -> 23.3.2 ##this version allowed me to install quarto
[notice] To update, run: python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip

When I run nbdev_export alone it works, so seems like I only missing the right way to use pip install.

My question is, how can I apply the "pip install" part in windows? [1]: https://nbdev.fast.ai/tutorials/tutorial.html [2]: Cannot install quarto with nbdev_install_quarto - ImportError: cannot import name 'uname' from 'os'

When you run pip install, you need to specify the package to install, so this should work :

pip install nbdev
