        ``virtualenv`` is a successor to `workingenv
        <http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/workingenv.py>`_, and an extension
        of `virtual-python
        <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#creating-a-virtual-python>`_.
        
        It was written by Ian Bicking, sponsored by the `Open Planning
        Project <http://openplans.org>`_ and is now maintained by a
        `group of developers <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/raw/master/AUTHORS.txt>`_.

        You can install it with ``easy_install virtualenv``, or from the `git
        repository <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv>`_ or from a `tarball
        <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/tarball/master#egg=virtualenv-dev>`_
        ``easy_install virtualenv==dev``.
        
        What It Does
        ------------
        
        ``virtualenv`` is a tool to create isolated Python environments.
        
        The basic problem being addressed is one of dependencies and versions,
        and indirectly permissions.  Imagine you have an application that
        needs version 1 of LibFoo, but another application requires version
        2.  How can you use both these applications?  If you install
        everything into ``/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages`` (or whatever your
        platform's standard location is), it's easy to end up in a situation
        where you unintentionally upgrade an application that shouldn't be
        upgraded.
        
        Or more generally, what if you want to install an application *and
        leave it be*?  If an application works, any change in its libraries or
        the versions of those libraries can break the application.
        
        Also, what if you can't install packages into the global
        ``site-packages`` directory?  For instance, on a shared host.
        
        In all these cases, ``virtualenv`` can help you.  It creates an
        environment that has its own installation directories, that doesn't
        share libraries with other virtualenv environments (and optionally
        doesn't access the globally installed libraries either).
        
        The basic usage is::
        
            $ python virtualenv.py ENV
        
        If you install it you can also just do ``virtualenv ENV``.
        
        This creates ``ENV/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages``, where any libraries you
        install will go.  It also creates ``ENV/bin/python``, which is a Python
        interpreter that uses this environment.  Anytime you use that interpreter
        (including when a script has ``#!/path/to/ENV/bin/python`` in it) the libraries
        in that environment will be used.
        
        It also installs either `Setuptools
        <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools>`_ or `distribute
        <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute>`_ into the environment. To use
        Distribute instead of setuptools, just call virtualenv like this::
        
            $ python virtualenv.py --distribute ENV
        
        You can also set the environment variable VIRTUALENV_USE_DISTRIBUTE.
        
        A new virtualenv also includes the `pip <http://pypy.python.org/pypi/pip>`_
        installer, so you can use `ENV/bin/pip`` to install additional packages into
        the environment.
        
        Windows Notes
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Some paths within the virtualenv are slightly different on Windows: scripts and
        executables on Windows go in ``ENV\Scripts\`` instead of ``ENV/bin/`` and
        libraries go in ``ENV\Lib\`` rather than ``ENV/lib/``.
        
        To create a virtualenv under a path with spaces in it on Windows, you'll need
        the `win32api <http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/>`_ library installed.
        
        PyPy Support
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Beginning with virtualenv version 1.5 there is experimental `PyPy
        <http://pypy.org>`_ support. Currently only PyPy trunk is supported.
        
        Creating Your Own Bootstrap Scripts
        -----------------------------------
        
        While this creates an environment, it doesn't put anything into the
        environment.  Developers may find it useful to distribute a script
        that sets up a particular environment, for example a script that
        installs a particular web application.
        
        To create a script like this, call
        ``virtualenv.create_bootstrap_script(extra_text)``, and write the
        result to your new bootstrapping script.  Here's the documentation
        from the docstring:
        
        Creates a bootstrap script, which is like this script but with
        extend_parser, adjust_options, and after_install hooks.
        
        This returns a string that (written to disk of course) can be used
        as a bootstrap script with your own customizations.  The script
        will be the standard virtualenv.py script, with your extra text
        added (your extra text should be Python code).
        
        If you include these functions, they will be called:
        
        ``extend_parser(optparse_parser)``:
            You can add or remove options from the parser here.
        
        ``adjust_options(options, args)``:
            You can change options here, or change the args (if you accept
            different kinds of arguments, be sure you modify ``args`` so it is
            only ``[DEST_DIR]``).
        
        ``after_install(options, home_dir)``:
        
            After everything is installed, this function is called.  This
            is probably the function you are most likely to use.  An
            example would be::
        
                def after_install(options, home_dir):
                    if sys.platform == 'win32':
                        bin = 'Scripts'
                    else:
                        bin = 'bin'
                    subprocess.call([join(home_dir, bin, 'easy_install'),
                                     'MyPackage'])
                    subprocess.call([join(home_dir, bin, 'my-package-script'),
                                     'setup', home_dir])
        
            This example immediately installs a package, and runs a setup
            script from that package.
        
        Bootstrap Example
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Here's a more concrete example of how you could use this::
        
            import virtualenv, textwrap
            output = virtualenv.create_bootstrap_script(textwrap.dedent("""
            import os, subprocess
            def after_install(options, home_dir):
                etc = join(home_dir, 'etc')
                if not os.path.exists(etc):
                    os.makedirs(etc)
                subprocess.call([join(home_dir, 'bin', 'easy_install'),
                                 'BlogApplication'])
                subprocess.call([join(home_dir, 'bin', 'paster'),
                                 'make-config', 'BlogApplication',
                                 join(etc, 'blog.ini')])
                subprocess.call([join(home_dir, 'bin', 'paster'),
                                 'setup-app', join(etc, 'blog.ini')])
            """))
            f = open('blog-bootstrap.py', 'w').write(output)
        
        Another example is available `here
        <https://svn.openplans.org/svn/fassembler/trunk/fassembler/create-venv-script.py>`_.
        
        activate script
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        In a newly created virtualenv there will be a ``bin/activate`` shell
        script, or a ``Scripts/activate.bat`` batch file on Windows.
        
        On Posix systems you can do::
        
          $ source bin/activate
        
        This will change your ``$PATH`` to point to the virtualenv's ``bin/``
        directory.  (You have to use ``source`` because it changes your shell
        environment in-place.) This is all it does; it's purely a convenience.  If
        you directly run a script or the python interpreter from the virtualenv's
        ``bin/`` directory (e.g.  ``path/to/env/bin/pip`` or
        ``/path/to/env/bin/python script.py``) there's no need for activation. 
        
        After activating an environment you can use the function ``deactivate`` to
        undo the changes to your ``$PATH``.
        
        The ``activate`` script will also modify your shell prompt to indicate
        which environment is currently active.  You can disable this behavior,
        which can be useful if you have your own custom prompt that already
        displays the active environment name.  To do so, set the
        ``VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT`` environment variable to any non-empty
        value before running the ``activate`` script.
        
        On Windows you just do::
        
          > \path\to\env\bin\activate.bat
        
        And use ``deactivate.bat`` to undo the changes.
        
        The ``--no-site-packages`` Option
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        If you build with ``virtualenv --no-site-packages ENV`` it will *not*
        inherit any packages from ``/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages`` (or
        wherever your global site-packages directory is).  This can be used if
        you don't have control over site-packages and don't want to depend on
        the packages there, or you just want more isolation from the global
        system.
        
        Using Virtualenv without ``bin/python``
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Sometimes you can't or don't want to use the Python interpreter
        created by the virtualenv.  For instance, in a `mod_python
        <http://www.modpython.org/>`_ or `mod_wsgi <http://www.modwsgi.org/>`_
        environment, there is only one interpreter.
        
        Luckily, it's easy.  You must use the custom Python interpreter to
        *install* libraries.  But to *use* libraries, you just have to be sure
        the path is correct.  A script is available to correct the path.  You
        can setup the environment like::
        
            activate_this = '/path/to/env/bin/activate_this.py'
            execfile(activate_this, dict(__file__=activate_this))
        
        This will change ``sys.path`` and even change ``sys.prefix``, but also allow
        you to use an existing interpreter.  Items in your environment will show up
        first on ``sys.path``, before global items.  However, global items will
        always be accessible -- this technique does not support the
        ``--no-site-packages`` flag.  Also, this cannot undo the activation of other
        environments, or modules that have been imported.  You shouldn't try to, for
        instance, activate an environment before a web request; you should activate
        *one* environment as early as possible, and not do it again in that process.
        
        Making Environments Relocatable
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Note: this option is somewhat experimental, and there are probably
        caveats that have not yet been identified.  Also this does not
        currently work on Windows.
        
        Normally environments are tied to a specific path.  That means that
        you cannot move an environment around or copy it to another computer.
        You can fix up an environment to make it relocatable with the
        command::
        
            $ virtualenv --relocatable ENV
        
        This will make some of the files created by setuptools or distribute
        use relative paths, and will change all the scripts to use ``activate_this.py``
        instead of using the location of the Python interpreter to select the
        environment.
        
        **Note:** you must run this after you've installed *any* packages into
        the environment.  If you make an environment relocatable, then
        install a new package, you must run ``virtualenv --relocatable``
        again.
        
        Also, this **does not make your packages cross-platform**.  You can
        move the directory around, but it can only be used on other similar
        computers.  Some known environmental differences that can cause
        incompatibilities: a different version of Python, when one platform
        uses UCS2 for its internal unicode representation and another uses
        UCS4 (a compile-time option), obvious platform changes like Windows
        vs. Linux, or Intel vs. ARM, and if you have libraries that bind to C
        libraries on the system, if those C libraries are located somewhere
        different (either different versions, or a different filesystem
        layout).
        
        Currently the ``--no-site-packages`` option will not be honored if you
        use this on an environment.
        
        The ``--extra-search-dir`` Option
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        When it creates a new environment, virtualenv installs either
        setuptools or distribute, and pip.  In normal operation, the latest
        releases of these packages are fetched from the `Python Package Index
        <http://pypi.python.org>`_ (PyPI). In some circumstances, this
        behavior may not be wanted, for example if you are using virtualenv
        during a deployment and do not want to depend on Internet access and
        PyPI availability.
        
        As an alternative, you can provide your own versions of setuptools,
        distribute and/or pip on the filesystem, and tell virtualenv to use
        those distributions instead of downloading them from the Internet.  To
        use this feature, pass one or more ``--extra-search-dir`` options to
        virtualenv like this::
        
            $ virtualenv --extra-search-dir=/path/to/distributions ENV
        
        The ``/path/to/distributions`` path should point to a directory that
        contains setuptools, distribute and/or pip distributions.  Setuptools
        distributions must be ``.egg`` files; distribute and pip distributions
        should be `.tar.gz` source distributions.
        
        Virtualenv will still download these packages if no satisfactory local
        distributions are found.
        
        If you are really concerned about virtualenv fetching these packages
        from the Internet and want to ensure that it never will, you can also
        provide an option ``--never-download`` like so::
        
            $ virtualenv --extra-search-dir=/path/to/distributions --never-download ENV
        
        If this option is provided, virtualenv will never try to download
        setuptools/distribute or pip. Instead, it will exit with status code 1
        if it fails to find local distributions for any of these required
        packages.
        
        Compare & Contrast with Alternatives
        ------------------------------------
        
        There are several alternatives that create isolated environments:
        
        * ``workingenv`` (which I do not suggest you use anymore) is the
          predecessor to this library.  It used the main Python interpreter,
          but relied on setting ``$PYTHONPATH`` to activate the environment.
          This causes problems when running Python scripts that aren't part of
          the environment (e.g., a globally installed ``hg`` or ``bzr``).  It
          also conflicted a lot with Setuptools.
        
        * `virtual-python
          <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#creating-a-virtual-python>`_
          is also a predecessor to this library.  It uses only symlinks, so it
          couldn't work on Windows.  It also symlinks over the *entire*
          standard library and global ``site-packages``.  As a result, it
          won't see new additions to the global ``site-packages``.
        
          This script only symlinks a small portion of the standard library
          into the environment, and so on Windows it is feasible to simply
          copy these files over.  Also, it creates a new/empty
          ``site-packages`` and also adds the global ``site-packages`` to the
          path, so updates are tracked separately.  This script also installs
          Setuptools automatically, saving a step and avoiding the need for
          network access.
        
        * `zc.buildout <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout>`_ doesn't
          create an isolated Python environment in the same style, but
          achieves similar results through a declarative config file that sets
          up scripts with very particular packages.  As a declarative system,
          it is somewhat easier to repeat and manage, but more difficult to
          experiment with.  ``zc.buildout`` includes the ability to setup
          non-Python systems (e.g., a database server or an Apache instance).
        
        I *strongly* recommend anyone doing application development or
        deployment use one of these tools.
        
        Contributing
        ------------
        
        Refer to the `contributing to pip`_ documentation - it applies equally to
        virtualenv.
        
        Virtualenv's release schedule is tied to pip's -- each time there's a new pip
        release, there will be a new virtualenv release that bundles the new version of
        pip.
        
        .. _contributing to pip: http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/how-to-contribute.html
        
        Running the tests
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Virtualenv's test suite is small and not yet at all comprehensive, but we aim
        to grow it.
        
        The easy way to run tests (handles test dependencies automatically)::
        
            $ python setup.py test
        
        If you want to run only a selection of the tests, you'll need to run them
        directly with nose instead. Create a virtualenv, and install required
        packages::
        
            $ pip install nose mock
        
        Run nosetests::
        
            $ nosetests
        
        Or select just a single test file to run::
        
            $ nosetests tests.test_virtualenv

        1.5
        ~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.8.1.
        
        * Add support for PyPy.
        
        * Uses a proper temporary dir when installing environment requirements.

        1.4.9
        ~~~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.7.2
        
        1.4.8
        ~~~~~
        
        * Fix for Mac OS X Framework builds that use
          ``--universal-archs=intel``
        
        * Fix ``activate_this.py`` on Windows.
        
        * Allow ``$PYTHONHOME`` to be set, so long as you use ``source
          bin/activate`` it will get unset; if you leave it set and do not
          activate the environment it will still break the environment.
        
        * Include pip 0.7.1
        
        1.4.7
        ~~~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.7
        
        1.4.6
        ~~~~~
        
        * Allow ``activate.sh`` to skip updating the prompt (by setting
          ``$VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT``).
        
        1.4.5
        ~~~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.6.3
        
        * Fix ``activate.bat`` and ``deactivate.bat`` under Windows when
          ``PATH`` contained a parenthesis
        
        1.4.4
        ~~~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.6.2 and Distribute 0.6.10
        
        * Create the ``virtualenv`` script even when Setuptools isn't
          installed
        
        * Fix problem with ``virtualenv --relocate`` when ``bin/`` has
          subdirectories (e.g., ``bin/.svn/``); from Alan Franzoni.
        
        * If you set ``$VIRTUALENV_USE_DISTRIBUTE`` then virtualenv will use
          Distribute by default (so you don't have to remember to use
          ``--distribute``).
        
        1.4.3
        ~~~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.6.1

        * Fix use of stand-alone ``virtualenv.py`` (and boot scripts)
        
        * Exclude ~/.local (user site-packages) from environments when using
          ``--no-site-packages``
        
        1.4.1
        ~~~~~
        
        * Include pip 0.6
        
        1.4
        ~~~
        
        * Updated setuptools to 0.6c11
        
        * Added the --distribute option
        
        * Fixed packaging problem of support-files
        
        1.3.4
        ~~~~~
        
        * Virtualenv now copies the actual embedded Python binary on
          Mac OS X to fix a hang on Snow Leopard (10.6).
        
        * Fail more gracefully on Windows when ``win32api`` is not installed.
        
        * Fix site-packages taking precedent over Jython's ``__classpath__``
          and also specially handle the new ``__pyclasspath__`` entry in
          ``sys.path``.
        
        * Now copies Jython's ``registry`` file to the virtualenv if it exists.
        
        * Better find libraries when compiling extensions on Windows.
        
        * Create ``Scripts\pythonw.exe`` on Windows.
        
        * Added support for the Debian/Ubuntu
          ``/usr/lib/pythonX.Y/dist-packages`` directory.
        
        * Set ``distutils.sysconfig.get_config_vars()['LIBDIR']`` (based on
          ``sys.real_prefix``) which is reported to help building on Windows.
        
        * Make ``deactivate`` work on ksh
        
        * Fixes for ``--python``: make it work with ``--relocatable`` and the
          symlink created to the exact Python version.
        
        1.3.3
        ~~~~~
        
        * Use Windows newlines in ``activate.bat``, which has been reported to help
          when using non-ASCII directory names.
        
        * Fixed compatibility with Jython 2.5b1.
        
        * Added a function ``virtualenv.install_python`` for more fine-grained
          access to what ``virtualenv.create_environment`` does.
        
        * Fix `a problem <https://bugs.launchpad.net/virtualenv/+bug/241581>`_
          with Windows and paths that contain spaces.
        
        * If ``/path/to/env/.pydistutils.cfg`` exists (or
          ``/path/to/env/pydistutils.cfg`` on Windows systems) then ignore
          ``~/.pydistutils.cfg`` and use that other file instead.
        
        * Fix ` a problem
          <https://bugs.launchpad.net/virtualenv/+bug/340050>`_ picking up
          some ``.so`` libraries in ``/usr/local``.
        
        1.3.2
        ~~~~~
        
        * Remove the ``[install] prefix = ...`` setting from the virtualenv
          ``distutils.cfg`` -- this has been causing problems for a lot of
          people, in rather obscure ways.
        
        * If you use a `boot script <./index.html#boot-script>`_ it will attempt to import ``virtualenv``
          and find a pre-downloaded Setuptools egg using that.
        
        * Added platform-specific paths, like ``/usr/lib/pythonX.Y/plat-linux2``
        
        1.3.1
        ~~~~~
        
        * Real Python 2.6 compatibility.  Backported the Python 2.6 updates to
          ``site.py``, including `user directories
          <http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.6.html#pep-370-per-user-site-packages-directory>`_
          (this means older versions of Python will support user directories,
          whether intended or not).
        
        * Always set ``[install] prefix`` in ``distutils.cfg`` -- previously
          on some platforms where a system-wide ``distutils.cfg`` was present
          with a ``prefix`` setting, packages would be installed globally
          (usually in ``/usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages``).
        
        * Sometimes Cygwin seems to leave ``.exe`` off ``sys.executable``; a
          workaround is added.
        
        * Fix ``--python`` option.
        
        * Fixed handling of Jython environments that use a
          jython-complete.jar.
        
        1.3
        ~~~
        
        * Update to Setuptools 0.6c9
        * Added an option ``virtualenv --relocatable EXISTING_ENV``, which
          will make an existing environment "relocatable" -- the paths will
          not be absolute in scripts, ``.egg-info`` and ``.pth`` files.  This
          may assist in building environments that can be moved and copied.
          You have to run this *after* any new packages installed.
        * Added ``bin/activate_this.py``, a file you can use like
          ``execfile("path_to/activate_this.py",
          dict(__file__="path_to/activate_this.py"))`` -- this will activate
          the environment in place, similar to what `the mod_wsgi example
          does <http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/VirtualEnvironments>`_.
        * For Mac framework builds of Python, the site-packages directory
          ``/Library/Python/X.Y/site-packages`` is added to ``sys.path``, from
          Andrea Rech.
        * Some platform-specific modules in Macs are added to the path now
          (``plat-darwin/``, ``plat-mac/``, ``plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages``),
          from Andrea Rech.
        * Fixed a small Bashism in the ``bin/activate`` shell script.
        * Added ``__future__`` to the list of required modules, for Python
          2.3.  You'll still need to backport your own ``subprocess`` module.
        * Fixed the ``__classpath__`` entry in Jython's ``sys.path`` taking
          precedent over virtualenv's libs.
        
        1.2
        ~~~
        
        * Added a ``--python`` option to select the Python interpreter.
        * Add ``warnings`` to the modules copied over, for Python 2.6 support.
        * Add ``sets`` to the module copied over for Python 2.3 (though Python
          2.3 still probably doesn't work).
        
        1.1.1
        ~~~~~
        
        * Added support for Jython 2.5.
        
        1.1
        ~~~
        
        * Added support for Python 2.6.
        * Fix a problem with missing ``DLLs/zlib.pyd`` on Windows.  Create
        * ``bin/python`` (or ``bin/python.exe``) even when you run virtualenv
          with an interpreter named, e.g., ``python2.4``
        * Fix MacPorts Python
        * Added --unzip-setuptools option
        * Update to Setuptools 0.6c8
        * If the current directory is not writable, run ez_setup.py in ``/tmp``
        * Copy or symlink over the ``include`` directory so that packages will
          more consistently compile.
        
        1.0
        ~~~
        
        * Fix build on systems that use ``/usr/lib64``, distinct from
          ``/usr/lib`` (specifically CentOS x64).
        * Fixed bug in ``--clear``.
        * Fixed typos in ``deactivate.bat``.
        * Preserve ``$PYTHONPATH`` when calling subprocesses.
        
        0.9.2
        ~~~~~
        
        * Fix include dir copying on Windows (makes compiling possible).
        * Include the main ``lib-tk`` in the path.
        * Patch ``distutils.sysconfig``: ``get_python_inc`` and
          ``get_python_lib`` to point to the global locations.
        * Install ``distutils.cfg`` before Setuptools, so that system
          customizations of ``distutils.cfg`` won't effect the installation.
        * Add ``bin/pythonX.Y`` to the virtualenv (in addition to
          ``bin/python``).
        * Fixed an issue with Mac Framework Python builds, and absolute paths
          (from Ronald Oussoren).
        
        0.9.1
        ~~~~~
        
        * Improve ability to create a virtualenv from inside a virtualenv.
        * Fix a little bug in ``bin/activate``.
        * Actually get ``distutils.cfg`` to work reliably.
        
        0.9
        ~~~
        
        * Added ``lib-dynload`` and ``config`` to things that need to be
          copied over in an environment.
        * Copy over or symlink the ``include`` directory, so that you can
          build packages that need the C headers.
        * Include a ``distutils`` package, so you can locally update
          ``distutils.cfg`` (in ``lib/pythonX.Y/distutils/distutils.cfg``).
        * Better avoid downloading Setuptools, and hitting PyPI on environment
          creation.
        * Fix a problem creating a ``lib64/`` directory.
        * Should work on MacOSX Framework builds (the default Python
          installations on Mac).  Thanks to Ronald Oussoren.
        
        0.8.4
        ~~~~~
        
        * Windows installs would sometimes give errors about ``sys.prefix`` that
          were inaccurate.
        * Slightly prettier output.
        
        0.8.3
        ~~~~~
        
        * Added support for Windows.
        
        0.8.2
        ~~~~~
        
        * Give a better warning if you are on an unsupported platform (Mac
          Framework Pythons, and Windows).
        * Give error about running while inside a workingenv.
        * Give better error message about Python 2.3.
        
        0.8.1
        ~~~~~
        
        Fixed packaging of the library.
        
        0.8
        ~~~
        
        Initial release.  Everything is changed and new!
