Creating virtualenv with virtualenvwrapper

I have a very simple question. According to this snippet, I have created a virtualenv named newConda in this address C:\Users\....\Envs. So, my question is: how can I create this virtualenv in any other path of my choice, for example, in E:\programming\New folder?

Solution

  • One of the advantages of virtualenvwrapper is that it stores all your virtual environments in one place so it can manage them at once.

    If you want to create a virtual environment in another place you just use virtualenv instead of virtualenvwrapper.

    If you want to store all your virtualenvwrapper's virtual environments in a different directory define (change) environment variable WORKON_HOME:

    set WORKON_HOME=E:\programming\New
