virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper¶

PATH¶

export EPD=~/Programs/epd-7.3-2-rh5-x86_64
export anaconda=~/Programs/anaconda

or

$ sudo easy_install pip

Installation of virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper on GNU/Linux:¶

or

$ sudo easy_install python-virtualenvwrapper

Wrapping Enthought Python Distribution¶

Note that since you will have multiple projects using EPD, it is not good to make this EPD virtualenv and install stuff which will be used in many different project on it. Install common packages to EPD directory, and make virtualenvs for each of your projects.

Make virtualenvs: epd¶

$ mkvirtualenv epd --python=$EPD/bin/python --system-site-packages
$ mkvirtualenv canopy --python=$canopy/bin/python --system-site-packages

Make virtualenvs: downloadable-contents-game¶

$ mkvirtualenv dlc --python=$EPD/bin/python --system-site-packages
$ workon dlc && cd ~/Dropbox/downloadable-contents-game/simulation && setvirtualenvproject $VIRTUAL_ENV $(pwd)

Make virtualenvs: elimination-used-market-game¶

$ mkvirtualenv elimination-used-market-game --python=$EPD/bin/python --system-site-packages
$ workon elimination-used-market-game && cd ~/Dropbox/elimination-used-market-game/paper && setvirtualenvproject $VIRTUAL_ENV $(pwd)

Make virtualenvs: variety-seeking-movie¶

$ mkvirtualenv variety-seeking-movie --python=$EPD/bin/python --system-site-packages
$ workon variety-seeking-movie && cd ~/Dropbox/variety-seeking-movie/datawork && setvirtualenvproject $VIRTUAL_ENV $(pwd)

Make virtualenvs: sphinx¶

$ mkvirtualenv sphinx --system-site-packages
$ workon sphinx && cd ~/Dropbox/docs && setvirtualenvproject $VIRTUAL_ENV $(pwd)

Add EPD’s bin to the PATH of virtuanenv:¶

$ vim $WORKON_HOME/dlc/bin/activate

Change the following:

_OLD_VIRTUAL_PATH="$PATH"
PATH="$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin:$PATH"
export PATH

To:

_OLD_VIRTUAL_PATH="$PATH"
PATH="$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin:$EPD/bin:$PATH"
export PATH

PATH="$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin:$canopy/bin:$canopy/../System/bin:$PATH"

Show virtualenv’s name on the name of Konsole tab automatically¶

Add the following to the end of $WORKON_HOME/postactivate:

qdbus $KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE $KONSOLE_DBUS_SESSION setTitle 1 `basename $VIRTUAL_ENV`

Back to the default (put the following line to the $WORKON_HOME/postdeactivate:

qdbus $KONSOLE_DBUS_SERVICE $KONSOLE_DBUS_SESSION setTitle 1 "Konsole: %d : %n"
