Python, Django - Find a folder of an installed package

In my project, I use Django allauth to allow users to login using their google account. However I want to override the default templates for this package, therefore I need access to the actual allauth folder that was created when I did a pip install.

I need this folder, as it contains two subfolders I need to add to add to my project. I have already checked a folder called site_packages which another answer on a question told me to go check through, however no allauth folder was found.

Does anybody know where I can gain access to this folder, so I can use parts of it in my project? Also when I pip installed allauth package, it was not added to my Pipefile, whilst all my other packages were. Thank you.

A easy way to check the location of a module is to use __file__. To find the allauth package, try:

import allauth
print(allauth.__file__)

This should give the full path to __init__.py inside of allauth. From there you can copy the folder.
