infra_virtualenv README

This repository provides a common Python virtualenv interface that infra code (such as chromite) can depend on. At this point, it is experimental and not yet used in production.

Virtualenv users should create a requirements.txt file listing the packages that they need and use the wrapper scripts (described below) to create the virtualenv and run commands within it.

To add packages to this repository, run:

$ pip wheel -w path/to/pip_packages -r path/to/requirements.txt

Commit the changes and make a CL.

For example for chromite, from within chromite/virtualenv, run:

$ pip wheel -w pip_packages -r requirements.txt

Wrapper scripts

create_venv creates or updates a virtualenv using a requirements.txt file.

$ create_venv .venv requirements.txt

To run the virtualenv python, use:

$ .venv/bin/python

NOTE: it is not generally safe to run the other scripts in .venv/bin due to the hard-coded paths in the virtualenv. Instead of running .venv/bin/pip for example, use .venv/bin/python -m pip.

Here’s a complete example:

$ echo mock==2.0.0 > requirements.txt
$ ./create_venv .venv requirements.txt
$ .venv/bin/python
