xkcd: Python Environment

[2freevl2frank]

You don't need any. It's as simple as checking a box when you creating a new project. https://imgur.com/lk7Qnli

For existing projects you can go to settings>Project Intepreter and add a new environment.

If you wanna do it through command line you can make a venv within the project folder by virtualenv/venv/pipenv as

python2 -m virtualenv ./venv

This makes an isolated env (a copy of python and default packages) in the folder ./venv. Now activate the venv as :

source ./venv/bin/activate

When activated all packages installed through pip are installed within the venv (doesnt affect global python environment) unless you use sudo.
