When creating virtual environment, a pyvenv.cfg is created that has home key which tells where the python executable is, which was used to create the virtual environment. If your global python installation is version 3.8.6, and you run
If Python 2.7 is not on your PATH as python, use full path to the python executable in place of python. Then, you can create virtual environments that have Python 2.7 with * It is not supported by the venv module out of the box, at least.
Unlike the old virtualenv tool, pyvenv doesn’t support creating environments with arbitrary versions of Python, which means you’re stuck using the default Python 3 installation for all of the environments you create.
This is the indicator that env is currently active, which means the python executable will only use this environment’s packages and settings. To show the package isolation in action, we can use the bcrypt module as an example. Let’s say we have bcrypt installed system-wide but not in our virtual environment.
If you would like to create a virtualenv with python 3.X having the version 2.X
You just have to pass a parameter argument for your virtual env.
$ virtualenv venv -p $(which python3)
This command will point to your current python3 install folder, and create a virtualenv copied from your current python3 binaries.
If you would like to see what this command does, just fire the command:
$ which python3
#should print your current python3 binary folder.
you need install python3.8 to your enviroment, if you are in ubuntu(18.04):
sudo apt install python3.8
and:
mkvirtualenv name_of_the_project -p python3.8
