🐍 pvx

Python version & venv management (maybe more ...)

🤪 What can pvx do ?

📦 Install

• Use pipx (recommend)

  pipx install pvx

• Use pip

  pip install pvx

🔧 Usage

• List version number that you can download.

  pvx py archive 
  
  # If you want to filter it, do this
  pvx py archive 3.10

• Install.

  pvx py insetall 3.10.4

• List versions of installed.

  pvx py list

• Remove the specified version of Python.

  pvx py remove 3.10.4

• Create a virtual environment (pvx use Python Venv)

  # All default (current python and default venv prompt)
  pvx venv new
  
  # Specify the version (which install by pvx)
  pvx venv new 3.10.4
  
  # Use existing Python
  pvx venv new ~/.pyenv/versions/3.10.4/bin/python
  
  # Use venv's parameters, such as specifying prompt
  pvx venv new 3.10.4 --prompt venv_prompt_name
  
  # Use current python and venv's parameters
  pvx venv new --prompt venv_prompt_name

• List all virtual environments

  # You'll see a table , highlight the activate one.
  pvx venv list

• Activate virtual environment with PROMPT

  # use `pvx venv list` to show prompt
  pvx venv activate prompt_name

• Remove virtual environment with PROMPT

  # use `pvx venv list` to show prompt
  pvx venv remove prompt_name

🌟 Extend functionality

If you want to extend commands, be familiar with the following points.

1. The folder where the pvx.py file resides is the root.
2. root/commands is the folder where the .py command scripts are stored.
3. If filenamed is true, use the file name command, otherwise use the argument to @click.command. - The .py files are named pvx_{group}_{command}.py.For example: pvx_py_install.py, which means we can call it with pvx py install.
4. .py file must have a method called cli and decorated with @click.command .
