Handling Python env files

Automatically applying python env files is a bit of a headache. There are some nvim plugins that attempt to attach a venv(swenv.nvim is one) but they're not fully realised. The cleanest solution I could find is to use direnv

Installation

  • Ubuntu

    sudo apt  install direnv

  • Add the following to the end of .zshrc

    eval "$(direnv hook zsh)"

Configuring a python project

To allow direnv to automatically enable the virtual environtment, add a .envrc file to your project that contains the following:

export VIRTUAL_ENV=<YOUR_PROJECT_ENV_DIR>
layout python3
