How does ipy work with virtual envs? I've always admired the feature list, but my assumption is that it doesn't really run in a virtual env, would that be accurate?
- nsfmc 13y agoit works fine with virtualenvs, on osx, you can do virtualenv env . ./env/bin/activate easy_install readline pip install ipython on linux, you can avoid the readline install. i have no idea what the windows scene is, but at least for the past four or so years, i've never had a problem with virtualenvs and ipython.
- brunomlopes 13y agoOn windows it's the same. Although I think I usually install ipython outside of virtualenvs, because I tend to always use it.
- mineo 13y agoIt prints a warning if you're running ipython inside a virtualenv that some features might not work but in that case, you can just install ipython itself inside the venv (I haven't yet found any problems caused by using ipython inside a venv). Using a python2 ipython inside a python3 venv might not be a good idea, but you probably knew that already :)
