How To Connect to a Running Virtual Environment

[erick....@smiledirectclub.com]

New to Python and the virtual environment 

I have a number of virtual environments running or /venv/bin/python3.5 /venv/bin/gunicorn

Is there a way I connect to one of these environments? 

I found documentation showing how to create a new virtual environment and connect but not how to connect if it's after the fact.

Perhaps the workon command is what you are looking for?

Are you asking how to make commands like “workon” use virtual environments that do not exist under your $WORKON_HOME directory?

Thank you for reaching out to me, yes. 

These are apps that have been running for some time and I want to access them.

Got it, finally!

I went to the scrip that creates it or this line, virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.5 /venv

and did a source /ven/bin/activate

Looks to be working

So without looking at the script how would I know which virtual environments are available on a system?

virtualenvwrapper solves this by putting all of your virtualenvs in one directory, under $WORKON_HOME (the default is ~/.virtualenvs, but you can change it).

If you have them scattered around in other places, there’s not really any way for it to know where they are.

When I started using virtualenvwrapper, I recreated all of my existing virtualenvs in $WORKON_HOME.
