Installation
============
.. warning::
We advise installing virtualenv-1.9 or greater. Prior to version 1.9, the
pip included in virtualenv did not download from PyPI over SSL.
.. warning::
When using pip to install virtualenv, we advise using pip 1.3 or greater.
Prior to version 1.3, pip did not download from PyPI over SSL.
.. warning::
We advise against using easy_install to install virtualenv when using
setuptools < 0.9.7, because easy_install didn't download from PyPI over SSL
and was broken in some subtle ways.
To install globally with `pip` (if you have pip 1.3 or greater installed globally):
::
$ [sudo] pip install virtualenv
Or to get the latest unreleased dev version:
::
$ [sudo] pip install https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/tarball/develop
To install version X.X globally from source:
::
$ curl -O https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/v/virtualenv/virtualenv-X.X.tar.gz
$ tar xvfz virtualenv-X.X.tar.gz
$ cd virtualenv-X.X
$ [sudo] python setup.py install
To *use* locally from source:
::
$ curl -O https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/v/virtualenv/virtualenv-X.X.tar.gz
$ tar xvfz virtualenv-X.X.tar.gz
$ cd virtualenv-X.X
$ python virtualenv.py myVE
.. note::
The ``virtualenv.py`` script is *not* supported if run without the
necessary pip/setuptools/virtualenv distributions available locally. All
of the installation methods above include a ``virtualenv_support``
directory alongside ``virtualenv.py`` which contains a complete set of
pip and setuptools distributions, and so are fully supported.
