Virtualenv Support (paver.virtual)

Paver makes it easy to set up virtualenv environments for development and deployment. Virtualenv gives you a place to install Python packages and keep them separate from your main system’s Python installation.

paver.virtual Tasks

Tasks for managing virtualenv environments.

paver.virtual.bootstrap()

Creates a virtualenv bootstrap script. The script will create a bootstrap script that populates a virtualenv in the current directory. The environment will have paver, the packages of your choosing and will run the paver command of your choice.

This task looks in the virtualenv options for:

script_name
name of the generated script
packages_to_install
packages to install with easy_install. The version of paver that you are using is included automatically. This should be a list of strings.
paver_command_line
run this paver command line after installation (just the command line arguments, not the paver command itself).
