Introduction

When I participated in Python Mokumokukai @ Allied Architects (Ebisu), a kind person told me "I want to use pyenv", so make a note.

At that time, I didn't know the difference between pyenv, pyvenv, and virtualenv Because it was a statement in the state, that kind person is also a beginner. I don't know if you're saying the right thing, but after prefaced, say "If you have only one purpose, you don't need virtualenv" and "You probably want to do virtualenv" and teach the following method. Gave me.

After listening to the story and actually working on it, I realized that my remarks were quite mysterious, and today (2015/04/11) I realized that it was pyvenv who taught me more.

I wrote about pyenv and virtualenv in this article.

How to use pyvenv for Windows

1. Move to the folder where you want to create a project.

For example

C:\> cd C:\Users\username\Documents

username is the username

2. Run pyvenv.py

C:\Users\username\Documents> Python C:\Python34\Tools\Scripts\pyvenv.py venvtest

"venvtest" is an environment folder name, so it is optional
If successful, the Include, Lib, Scripts folder and pyvenv.cfg will be created in the specified folder (C: \ Users \ username \ Documents \ venvtest).

(Added on 2015/04/13) Mr. shimizukawa commented that pyvenv is made to be executable as a python module, so you can get the same result with the following command.

C:\Users\username\Documents> python -m venv venvtest

3. Activate the environment

C:\Users\username\Documents\venvtest\Scripts\activate

(After activate)

(venvtest)C:\Users\username\Documents>

"(Venvtest)" (environment folder name is shown in parentheses) is displayed at the beginning of the line.
In this state, you can use the venv environment specialized for the project.

4. Deactivate the environment

(Mr. Thanks to furico revised on May 10, 2015)

(venvtest)C:\Users\username\Documents> deactivate

(After deactivate)

C:\Users\username\Documents>
