In my older virtualenv video, I got a ton of requests to show how to use virtual environments on Windows. I hope this helps!

Hey Corey, thank you as always, i was trying to debug a Python for loop and was not sure if you talk about it anywhere. Also realized that sublime text 3 does not actually feature a python debugger, would appreciate your thoughts on this.

in short (i am assuming you have activated virtual environment) type: pip freeze (you will see all requirements) copy all to requirements.txt (16:40 observe copying process carefully) //(make sure requirements.txt is in project folder) type: deactivate (venv will be deactivated) type: pip install -r . equirements.txt (all requirements will be installed) type:.\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1 (activating environment)

Thanks @Corey Schafer. trying to follow some Django tutorial on KZfaq but just couldn't activate the virtual env, windows would accept the CMD but won't activate the venv : Setup: win 10, gitbash, python 3.7 Create the venv: python -m venv my_dir Activate the venv: source my_dir/Scripts/activate Stackoverflow to the rescue. Love your work btw thanks from the rest of us.

I want to confirm that I understand it correctly. So the venv module here, is used to create... a virtual environment. it's like a copy of python, but one that I can mess around with and don't have to worry about. once I'm done with it or don't need it anymore, I can simply delete it like deleting a normal folder. whatever I do in the virual environment, doesn't affect the main python installation (/AppData/Local/.../Python).

@jeffskoldberg416 Жыл бұрын

You're right, is is simple and doesn't have the bells and whistles of pipenv. The one thing I really prefer in pipenv is your pipfile is update automatically. Here, you would have to remember to add something to your requirements.txt after you install it.

Hey there, that was a really helpful video! :) I have just a few questions: 1. How do I open this on VS code then? If I create a new file in VS code under the project folder where my venv is (so on the same level as the venv) and open the Command Palette and search Python: Search Interpreter and choose the venv does it apply to my file? Or also to all other files? 2. If your script file is outside the venv directory then how will the script access venv packages? 3. The pip list is not working... Do I have to install something first? I hope you see this and can help me get along. Thanks in advance! :D
