install:
1-) first install pyenv:
git clone git://github.com/yyuu/pyenv.git ~/.pyenv
2-) then just:
git clone git://github.com/akestner/pyenv-autoenv.git ~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-autoenv
3-) add these lines to your .bashrc or .zshrc:
if [[ -d $HOME/.pyenv ]];then
export PATH="$HOME/.pyenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
source ~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-autoenv/bin/pyenv-autoenv
fi
How it works:
Pyenv already has a behavior where: whenever you enter a directory with a .python-version file set
with a version number in, he autoloads that python version.
I've extended this behavior to work with virtualenvwrapper. So whenever you enter a dir with a .python-env
set with a virtualenv name, he activates that environment automatically.
Another aditional behavior is: If you don't have the python version from .python-version installed,
he automatically installs it for you. And if you dont have the virtualenv from .python-env created,
he creates and load it for you.
TODO: make this optional
Example: if you have a project on git with a .python-version with 2.7.5 in it, and a .python-env with my_env.
When you clone it, all need to do is cd into the project's directory and it will load (and install if needed) both
the python-2.7.5 and the my_env virtualenv (uses virtualenvwrapper so you need to have it installed).
