I actually kinda liked having a virtualenv.
Although the hacks used to make it work, were not nice.
I would have loved to see core python suppport for virtualenv, which could probably avoid these hacks.
- BerislavLopac 8y ago"Core support" in which sense exactly? It is part of the standard library: https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/venv.html https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/venv.html
- sfoley 8y agoVirtualenv is not the same thing as venv, but you are correct that package isolation is now part of “core python” - as of 3.3.
- BerislavLopac 8y agoYes, but apart from virtualenv being older and working with Python 2, I fail to see the difference between the two.
- devxpy 8y agoI could be wrong, but virtualenv, like pip, is not part of the core language. Its developed exclusively by pypa. https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv
