Where is virtualenvwrapper.sh after pip install?

Question

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?

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

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!

Answer 3

/usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper.sh

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

Answer 4

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

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
