  install                     Install packages.
  download                    Download packages.
  uninstall                   Uninstall packages.
  freeze                      Output installed packages in requirements format.

  show                        Show information about installed packages.
  check                       Verify installed packages have compatible dependencies.
  search                      Search PyPI for packages.
  wheel                       Build wheels from your requirements.
  hash                        Compute hashes of package archives.

If you don't have "pip" already installed, you can install "pip" module by:

CentOS:
$ sudo yum install python36-setuptools
$ sudo easy_install pip

Or the manual way:
# Download get-pip.py file (https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py)
# Then run the following:
$ python3 get-pip.py
