VirtualEnv: Steps to get up and running
***********************
Get Virtual Env up and Running
Install virtual env
1.) If your target folder is already created, cd to the parent of your target directory
2.) Run this command:
virtualenv –no-site-packages target_folder_name/env
(this will keep all the virtualenv related folders in a single location)
3.) cd into target folder, then run
source bin/activate OR source folder_name/bin/activate
- At this point you should get the environment (folder name) in parens at the command line
4.) Install packages for this environment:
pip install django
pip install mysql-python
pip install django-piston
5.) For django: Start django server using ./manage.py runserver or pythong manage.py runserver
6.) To quit virtualenv – type ‘deactivate’ at the command line
