Rename an environment with virtualenvwrapper

Question

I have an environment called doors and I would like to rename it to django for the virtualenvwrapper.

I've noticed that if I just rename the folder ~/.virtualenvs/doors to django, I can now call workon django, but the environment still says (doors)hobbes3@hobbes3.

Answer 1

You can use:

cpvirtualenv oldenv newenv
rmvirtualenv oldenv

So in your case:

cpvirtualenv doors django
rmvirtualenv doors
