An alternative approach to manage virtualenvs from pyenv.

pyenv-virtualenvwrapper is a pyenv plugin which provides an pyenv virtualenvwrapper command to manage your virtualenvs with virtualenvwrapper.

Because virtualenvwrapper is depending on python, you must first install at least one version of python.

For example, install 2.7.3 and set it as global in pyenv.

$ pyenv install 2.7.3
$ pyenv global 2.7.3

(NOTICE: virtualenvwrapper will not work if you remove the python version which is bound to virtualenvwrapper.)

Installing virtualenvwrapper into your python.

$ pip install virtualenvwrapper
$ pyenv rehash

(NOTICE: if you have multiple python versions in pyenv, it is better to install virtualenvwrapper into all the versions of python which you want to work with virtualenvwrapper.)

Installing pyenv-virtualenvwrapper as a pyenv plugin will give you access to the pyenv virtualenvwrapper and pyenv virtualenvwrapper_lazy command.

$ mkdir -p ~/.pyenv/plugins
$ cd ~/.pyenv/plugins
$ git clone git://github.com/yyuu/pyenv-virtualenvwrapper.git

This will install the latest development version of pyenv-virtualenvwrapper into the ~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenvwrapper directory. From that directory, you can check out a specific release tag. To update pyenv-virtualenvwrapper, run git pull to download the latest changes.

To setup a virtualenvwrapper into your shell, just run pyenv virtualenvwrapper. For example,

$ pyenv virtualenvwrapper

or, if you favor virtualenvwrapper_lazy.sh,

$ pyenv virtualenvwrapper_lazy
