Create and maintain python venvs

mkvenv

Create and maintain Python venvs.

I keep my venvs in a central location (~/.local/lib/venv/*) which makes maintenance much easier.

Check out the activate script in my zsh dotfiles for easy activation of venvs!

Installation

I used Python 3 with it's default modules to parse JSON, so there are no external dependencies required.

However, you may need to install any Python packages that your OS requires for creating Python venvs.
