Re: jug and virtualenv

[Luis Pedro Coelho]

Hi Bryan,

I use a virtualenv setup and it works well.

When you install jug (either from source or through pip) under a virtualenv, the jug "binary" is modified to run the virtualenv version of Python. Do you not get this?

Run

pip install jug
cat `which jug`

inside the virtualenv and see what you get

In this instance, the system jug can't see the packages in my virtualenv, and I can't install jug in my virtualenv, because it just uses the system one by creating a jug binary which simply uses the system package resources.

The other is to copy and paste the entire jug egg into my virtual env and hack it. I can't do the former on the shared system - but could test it on my laptop. Before I go down this route, has anyone else come across this problem?

Thank you.

I use it for most of my projects and find it invaluable.

However, it has not "caught on". I think it is weird at first

(Also, I have not really taken much care to promote it)

Best,
