Here's an example:
$ mkdir ~/var ~/var/venv # where I keep my virtualenvs
$ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 --system-site-packages ~/var/venv/3
$ ~/var/venv/3/bin/python3 # invokes the virtualenv python3
$ ~/var/venv/3/bin/pip3 # invokes the virtualenv pip3
$ ln -s ~/var/venv/3/bin/python3 ~/bin/. # make these my default
$ ln -s ~/var/venv/3/bin/pip3 ~/bin/.
From this point on "pip3" should execute your own $HOME/bin/pip3, which
comes from the virtualenv and installs in ~/var/venv/3/lib/...
Can you do the same with the standard library 'venv' module? I
generally recommend and prefer that over the third-party 'virtualenv',
which achieves what it does via a series of hacks.
Probably? Haven't tried. I thought the venv module was essentially virtualenv's
innards presented as a module, but have never tested it.
Do I need to retire my "venv" shell script (convenience wrapper for the
virtualenv command)?
