I would like to have a different PYTHONPATH from my usual in a particular virtualenv. How do I set this up automatically? I realize that it’s possible to hack the bin/activate file, is there a better/more standard way?
This django-users post is probably going to help you a lot. It suggests using virtualenvwrapper to wrap virtualenv, to use the add2virtualenv command. Using this, when the environment is active, you can just call:
to add the directories to your pythonpath for the current environment.
It handles autonomously the PATH changes on environment switches. No black magic required. Et voila!
