Cheat Sheet for virtualenvwrapper

This is what I did to set up my python development system on my mac

First Steps:

1. brew install python, python3
2. sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper

Add this to .zshrc

# everything for virtualenvwrapper
export WORKON_HOME=~/Envs
export PROJECT_HOME=~/Projekte/Python
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

Basic Commands

Create a new python2 env (the hard way)

mkvirtualenv -p /usr/local/bin/python test

in that env python --version will return 2.x

Create a new python3 env (the hard way)

mkvirtualenv -p /usr/local/bin/python3 test3

in that env python --version will return 3.x
