No matter what folder am I'm, command 'pipenv shell' creat virtualenvironment named by my username, doesn't create virtualenvironment named by my project(folder's name). Could you please help me with that?
According to your description, I used "pipenv shell" to create a virtual environment on my computer. When it was originally in the global environment python3.8.3, it was named ".venv" by default:
It is recommended that you exit the original virtual environment before using "pipenv shell" to create a virtual environment. In addition, as 'cizario' said, we often use the command "python -m venv .venv_name" in VSCode to create a virtual environment and it can still be in this virtual environment automatically after refreshing the console:

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.
How can I activate my virtual environment in visual code terminal? I've tried using the workspace settings method but the settings file was empty
If you have already created your virtual environment, you can just go to its directory by running the following in the VS Code terminal:
cd /python_env/bin/
and then
source ./activate
or, you can directly run
source ./python_env/bin/activate
from your main project directory.
Please follow the steps below:
Open your project folder in VS Code
Create a new terminal
Use the following command in the terminal to create a new virtual environment
# .venv is your virtual environment name
# You can also use py -3 -m venv .venv
python -m venv .venv
After the virtual environment is generated, use the following command to activate the virtual environment
# .venv is your virtual environment name
.venv\scripts\activate
Normally, when VS Code notices that you have created a new virtual environment, a popup will prompt you to allow it to be selected for the workspace.
it shows created virtual environment. But it is not redirect to virtual environment . after I upgraded the pip no changes where appear . please help me to get that.
enter image description here
You must navigate to where your virtual environment is installed, then execute the activation script.
cmd.exe
C:\> <venv>\Scripts\activate.bat
PowerShell
PS C:\> <venv>\Scripts\Activate.ps1

Virtualenv is created. You need to activate virtual environment too
Like:
venv_name\Scripts\activate
I've been told that to activate a Virtual Environment in Django for Windows I should try:
environment_path\Scripts\activate
But when I enter that, cmd returns this error:
The system cannot find the path specified.
I created the virtual environment by entering:
python3 -m venv env
However when I try env\Scripts\activate I get the error described.
Can anyone help? Thanks.
Activating a virtual environment on Windows depends on where you are running it from. From the Windows Command Prompt, the command is:
environment_path\Scripts\activate.bat
If the Git-Bash shell is being used, which adds several useful tools and a more Unix/Linux-like environment, then the command is:
source environment_path\Scripts\activate
I have found the prerequisites section of Test-Driven Development with Python aka "the Testing Goat book" to be handy in getting Django, Python and related things setup on Windows.
You can create virtual environment in windows as:
py -m venv myenv (Here myenv is the name that users give. It can be anything you want)
Now to activate your myenv virtual environment type:myenv\scripts\activate
To deactivate virtual environment simply type:
deactivate
If you are using windows 7, then try environment_path\Scripts\activate.ps1
Also, error is saying, The system cannot find the path specified., make sure your path is correct.
Remember scripts folder is in your virtualenv folder.
I have created a virtual enviroment using virtualenv command with a standard procedure. Now, when I activate it or deactivate, the output of which pip or which python gives me same output /usr/local/bin/pip. However there is copies of python and pip commands in my vitrual enviroment directory - I have found them there. What might be the problem?
Did you move the virtual environment folder to a different name? The original path to the virtual environment is written into the generated activate script so if you move the environment activate will set your path to the old path of the virtual environment.
To fix this run virtualenv --relocatable $YOUR_VIRTUALENV_PATH then modify the VIRTUAL_ENV variable in the activate script to point to your new location.
I think it happen when I moved the environment folder to a different location.
I solved it by reinstalling virtualenv and creating a new environment
