Let's say that Python has virtual environments env1, env2.
When working with files within env1, I select the env1 interpreter, and when working with env2, I repeat the task of switching to the env2 interpreter.
Can't I skip this course? Because this is too cumbersome.
When I open a file in virtual environment env1, I want the env1 interpreter to be automatically selected, and when I open a file in virtual environment env2, I hope the interpreter change itself without selecting a separate setting menu.
I'm using Pycharm. If possible, I want to know the function in Pycharm, and if it's not right, it's okay to do it in VS code.

Recently I've been using pyenv-virtualenv for my python projects and with the vscode extension "Python Environment Manager", and I love the combo.
However I currently need to activate the virtualenvs manually through the plugin.
Does anyone know if there's a good way and have tested it to do it automatically?
Can I for for example create some kind of file structure that would allow vscode to automatically select the right pyenv-virtualenv when I open a file in a specific repo/folder?
Open a folder as a workspace
Use the command to create a new virtual environment in the terminal,
The above command will generate a .venv folder in the current workspace, which is a virtual environment named .venv
Select the .venv virtual environment interpreter in the Select Interpreter panel
New terminals will automatically activate the environment
When you open this folder with vscode next time, VScode will select the last interpreter by default. If you have not changed it, then you will select the .venv virtual environment by default when you open this folder in the future.
I want to open an existing virtual environment in Visual Studio Code. When I try to change the interpreter address inside of the settings.json (as instructed by https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/environments#_global-virtual-and-conda-environments) it doesn't work. With the virtual environment that I have, there is no python.exe file, I believe that is the issue as to why the following settings.json file doesn't work.
{
"python.pythonPath": "D:\\GitProjects\\OrganizationApp\\venv1\\bin\\python"
}
First of all Try open the root folder which venv folder resides in with Visual Studio Code.
(If you are on Linux you can just got the directory and open terminal and type code).
You should get a pop up to change the interpreter.
If not then Open your command palette Ctrl + Shift + P
Search for Python interpreter and select the Venv one.
According to your description, you could refer to the following steps to check the creation and use of the virtual environment in VSCode:
Prerequisites.
Check if python is available.
Enter cmd from the computer, enter the cmd window, enter python, and output the python version number to represent python is available.
If it is not available, please check the python installation package and check the python environment variables.
The python extension was successfully installed in VSCode.
Create and use a virtual environment:
Create a virtual environment in the vscode terminal. python3 -m venv ./venv1 or python -m venv ./venv1 Reference: virtual environments.
Select Yes when the prompt box pops up.
Then the interpreter will automatically be replaced with the created virtual environment.
After restarting VSCode, there is no python interpreter displayed in the lower left corner. We can create or open a python file and it will automatically display the interpreter.
Click on the interpreter to choose other available interpreters.
Use the shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+` to open a new terminal and enter the virtual environment.
Update:
When I open other projects or don’t open any project in VSCode , the virtual environment created before is not displayed in the python interpreter options. The reason is that the virtual environment we created is based on the current project and it exists in this project. like this:
Although this virtual environment is not displayed in other projects, I can use this virtual environment by selecting the python.exe of the virtual environment ( 'enter interpreter path' '.venv' 'Scripts'). Therefore, if there is no python.exe, it is recommended to create a new virtual environment.
I have package atom-python-virtualenv and other package termination as terminal.
I am looking for solution which allow me to use automatically virtual enviroment inside terminal.
It should work like this:
I choose virtual environment in atom-python-virtualenv paskage . ( I do not want to talk about how to create env.)
When i open terminal in termiantion package, I want to have the same virtual environment in terminal.
If no virtual environment selected, then terminal in normal mode.
Does Termination works automatically under virtualenv? I don't think so, because it do not show me.
I create solution not exactly what i expect but is working.
Inside termination settings have we auto run command and there you have to write 3 commands.
1. Jump to env directory.
2. Start env
3. Come back to previous dir.
Look on print-screen:
I have a shared flask web project I am working on with 2 other developers, one of the developers initialized the venv on his pc, uploaded his project structure to github from where I cloned his repo.
Now I when I start vscode and open the project folder, python does not auto detect the venv and asks if it should set is as the interpreter, the only option I have is the default system wide python install, and not the venv python interpreter.
I tried adding it to the list by using the command python:select interpreter and then finding the python.exe inside the venv/scripts folder, but this does not work and vscode still asks for a interpreter.
I also tried manually adding it inside of my workspace settings.json file like so
"python.pythonPath": "C:\\laragon\\www\\Proftaak\\venv\\Scripts\\python.exe"/
But vscode also gives an error on this saying the interpreter is not valid.
How would I fix this?
This is not expected to work as virtual environments are not designed or meant to be movable. They are meant to be created on each machine you need a virtual environment on. As such, I suspect that the virtual environment does not work outside of VS Code which could prevent it from selecting it as a possible working environment.
I have VSCode and I am trying to set up a virtual environment. First, I created all the venv properly. When I run in the Terminal is working and activated. However, it is not showing up in the VSCode. Make the matter worse, I can not change my interpreter at all. At first, I had python 2.7 and I could not change into python3 even though everything is set up properly. I fixed that problem with this setting "code-runner.executorMap.python": "python3 -u". And how I cannot change to another interpreter without the delete the setting. I am not sure what to do. Please help.
Thanks
Others have reported setting up virtual environments using VSCode. I suggest you set up your virtual environment using the terminal and activating the environment before starting VSCode. If you are using Anaconda Python this source will instruct you on setting up a virtual environment. For non-anaconda python, there are many pages for doing the same
To change the interpreter in VSCode, go to the View menu and select the Command Palette. When the command palette opens type python in the text box. This will cause commands with python in its name to be displayed. The first command (on my machine) is Python: Select interpreter. Select this and hit return. You will be given a list of python interpreters to choose from.
