Standardized fencing off of python virtual environments on a per-project basis

Project description

Build status Testing coverage Development Status Latest Version Downloads/month Supported Python versions

Standardized fencing off of python virtual environments on a per-project basis. The idea is to take a directory as an input and create and manage a python virtual environment in a known location.

Opinionated hooks

The goal is to make this framework attractive to users of other compatible products. For instance, as a user of git and sublime text, I added functionality related to those.

git

If the directory provided as input (defaults to cwd) is part of a git repository, the virtual environment created will be relative to the root of that repository.

sublime text

The sublime linter plugin is very easy to configure. Pointing it to a particular installation of python is as simple as putting some json into a configuration file. If there is a .sublime-project file in the input directory, then it will be configured to respect the virtual environment that is being created.

requirements.txt

As a helpful shortcut, if there is a requirements.txt file in the input directory, then those requirements will be installed upon virtualenv creation.

Usage

  • Create a new virtual environment

fencepy -c

  • Activate the virtual environment in a bash-like shell

. `fencepy -a`

  • Activate the virtual environment in fish shell

. (fencepy -a)

  • Remove the virtual environment

fencepy -e

Additional notes

Python versions

Both python 2 and 3 are supported. Additionally, both can be used for one project, as they will be stored in separate directories.

Cross-platform support

During initial implementation, care was taken to make the library mostly platform-independent. However, it has not been tested with anything other than linux and is not expected to function in other environments without some work.
