Virtualenv enables to generate isolated python environments. ¶
¶
The current virtualenv version can be check by: ¶
¶
virtualenv --version ¶
¶
To create a virtual environment and to activate execute the following: ¶

¶
virtualenv env ¶
. env/bin/activate ¶
¶
One can create a virtualenv with a different Python version: ¶
¶
virtualenv --python=python2.7 env ¶
¶
Thus, one can have multiple environments to test against different Versions: ¶
¶
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 pyenv ¶
. env/bin/activate ¶
pip install package-name ¶
¶
The Package management system distribute can be explicitly included: ¶
¶
virtualenv --distribute --python=/usr/bin/python2.7 env ¶
¶
The environment is deactivated by simply executing the Statement: ¶
¶
deactivate
