Where is virtualenvwrapper.sh after pip install?

问题:

I'm trying to setup virtualenvwrapper on OSX, and all the instructions and tutorials I've found tell me to add a source command to .profile, pointing towards virtualenvwrapper.sh. I've checked all the python and site-packages directories, and I can't find any virtualenvwrapper.sh. Is this something I need to download separately? Is pip not installing correctly?

This is the contents of /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/virtualenvwrapper:

hook_loader.py      hook_loader.pyc     project.py      project.pyc     user_scripts.py     user_scripts.pyc

As you can see, no virtualenvwrapper.sh. Where is it?

回答1:

You can use the find command to search for a file:

find / -name virtualenvwrapper.sh

This will search all directories from the root for the file.

---

on ubuntu 12.04 LTS, installing through pip, it is installed to

/usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

---

on ubuntu 17.04, installing through pip as a normal user, it is installed to

~/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答2:

did you already try this ?

$ which virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答3:

I just reinstalled it with pip.

sudo pip uninstall virtualenvwrapper
sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper

And this time it put it in /usr/local/bin.

回答4:

The exact path where virtualenvwrapper.sh is stored/located varies from OS to OS. Even with in same OS, it varies from version to version. So we need a generic solution that works for all OS versions.

Easiest way I have found to find its path is: Do

pip uninstall virtualenvwrapper

This will prompt a confirmation. Say "No" But first line of confirmation shows the path of virtualenvwrapper.sh (Prompt gives a list of files it will delete, if you say Yes. First entry in this list contains path to virtualenvwrapper.sh in your machine)

回答5:

or, like I did..just uninstall virtualenvwrapper

sudo pip uninstall virtualenvwrapper

and then install it with easy_install

sudo easy_install virtualenvwrapper

this time I found the file "/usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh" installed... Before that I weren't finding that file anywhere even by this command

find / -name virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答6:

On Mac OS

which virtualenvwrapper.sh

u got

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

and u can

sudo ln /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

and in your .bash_profile

source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

or u can

source /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答7:

In OS X 10.8.2, with Python 2.7:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答8:

In OSx EI captain, I installed the virtualenvwrapper as

sudo pip3 install virtualenvwrapper

, however I cannot find the virtualenvwrapper.sh in /user/local/bin, it was finally found at /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh , and you can make an soft link to /usr/local/bin as

ln -s /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh, and everything you can just follow the setup guide as the official document does. Good luck!

回答9:

I have the same problem. If you have older version of virtualenvwrapper, then pip wont work.

download src from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenvwrapper/3.6 and python setup.py install. Then the problem solved.

回答10:

For RPM-based distributions(like Fedora 19), after running the sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper command, you may find the file at:

/usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答11:

For me it was in :

~/Library/Python/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

(With OS X, with a pip install --user installation)

回答12:

Installed it using pip on Ubuntu 15.10 using a normal user, it was put in ~/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh which I found by running:

$ find / -name virtualenvwrapper.sh 2>/dev/null

回答13:

Using

find / -name virtualenvwrapper.sh

I got a TON of "permissions denied"s, and exactly one printout of the file location. I missed it until I found that file location when I uninstall/installed it again with pip.

In case you were curious, it was in

/usr/local/share/python/virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答14:

In my case (OSX El Capitan, version 10.11.5) I needed to edit the .profile like so:

In the terminal:

vim ~/.profile

export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
export MSYS_HOME=C:\msys\1.0
source /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh                                                                                   

And then reload the profile (that it will be availuble in the current session.)

source ~/.profile

Hope it will help someone.

回答15:

Although this is an OS X question, here's what worked for me on Linux (Red Hat).

My virtualwrapper.sh was in

~/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

This is probably because I installed virtualenvwrapper locally, using the --user flag...

pip install --user virtualenvwrapper

...as an alternative to the risky practice of using sudo pip.

回答16:

/usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper.sh

I've installed it on Ubuntu 16.04 and it resulted in this location.

回答17:

/usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

回答18:

I had the same issue in with the beagle bone black(debian).

Manually downloading the package and installing worked for me.

回答19:

For Ubuntu
If you just installed it, check the output on Terminal, I'm posting mine :

Running setup.py install for virtualenv-clone    
Installing virtualenv-clone script to /home/username/.local/bin
Successfully installed virtualenvwrapper virtualenv virtualenv-clone stevedore pbr six
Cleaning up...

Here the second line tells you the path. For me it was at /home/username/.local/bin

回答20:

pip will not try to make things difficult for you on purpose.

The thing is commands based files are always installed in /bin folders they can be anywhere on the system path.

I had the same problem and I found that I have these files in my

~/.local/bin/

folder instead of

/usr/loca/bin/

which is the common case, but I think they changed the default path to

~ or $HOME

directory because its more isolate for the pip installations and provides a distinction between apt-get packages and pip packages.

So coming to the point you have two choices here either you go to your .bashrc and make changes like this

# for virtualenv wrapper
export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/Envs
export PROJECT_HOME=$HOME/Devel
source $HOME/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

and than create a directory virtualenvwrapper under /usr/share/ and than symlink your virtualwrapper_lazy.sh like this

sudo ln -s ~/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper_lazy.sh /usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper_lazy.sh

and you can check if your workon command is working which will list your existing virtualenv's.

回答21:

Have you installed it using sudo? Was the error in my case.

回答22:

If you execute pip install virtualenvwrapper without sudo as a normal user pip will run but won't copy the files in the required locations because the lack of permissions.

mortiz@florida:~# sudo pip3 install virtualenvwrapper

Use sudo and the files will be created under their respective paths:

root@florida:/usr/local/bin# ls -ltr
total 8008
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 8136192 Jun 11 17:45 chromedriver
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff   41697 Sep  5 16:06 virtualenvwrapper.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff    2210 Sep  5 16:06 virtualenvwrapper_lazy.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff     215 Sep  5 16:06 pbr
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff     218 Sep  5 16:06 virtualenv-clone
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff     213 Sep  5 16:06 virtualenv
root@florida:/usr/local/bin# 

Worked for me on Debian GNU/Linux 9

回答23:

in my case: /home/username/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
