问题
I am using PyDev for Eclipse as my IDE and pip as my package management tool, running virtualenv.
Every time I want to use/include some new libraries or new dependencies in my project, I add them into the pip-requires file. The dependencies are installed in my virtual environment with no problem after running pip install -r pip-requires
.
My Env:
- Ubuntu 12.04
- PyDev for Eclipse 2.7.1.2012100913
- Python 2.7.3
- Eclipse indigo
Update: My Pydev Setup:

Questions:
- eclipse/pydev knows nothing about the new libraries being added in my virtual env. I had to manually add the .egg source folder into eclipse project's PYTHONPATH one by one in order to resolve all the unresolved imports which was very annoying! Can the python dependencies be resolved in a easier manner?
Update:
- I found that if I use virtual env
Env/bin/python
as the interpreter as the screenshot indicates, some of the basic modules are not resolved in eclipse, eg.import copy, import json
etc. should I use default/usr/bin/python
as interpreter and just add virtual envsite-package
to the PYTHONPATH? so that I can resolve both standard python libraries(eg. json) and my own project dependencies?
回答1:
Make sure your system PYTHONPATH include the site-packages folder when you choose python interpreter from your virtualenv. Just like the snapshot.

Then you don't need to add them one by one into PYTHONPATH. You will need to restart eclipse (Refresh doesn't work). New models will be added.
Update:
I checked the PYTHONPATH in the virtualenv. I found there are some other paths in the sys.path. They are the system default python installed location. These path includes the basic models, like copy
and json
.
PS: My environment is Max OSX 10.8. Please check the output of your own platform by print sys.path

I think this is the requirement of virtualenv. You need to add these paths into pydev system PYTHONPATH. Then you can use these basic modules.
回答2:
From your questions I understood that you're manually adding the Python Egg packages to the path. Instead of doing this, you can just go to the Project Settings window, then open "PyDev - PYTHONPATH", navigate to the panel called "External Libraries" and add the whole site-packages
folder of your virtual environment, usually /path/to/virtualenv/lib/site-packages/
. This way you won't add the Eggs one by one for each packages. When you install a new package, just go to the Eclipse window and if the import is still not resolved, select the project and press the F5
key, to refresh the project.
Hopefully, that should work for you. Good luck.

This is how I go about setting up PyDev with a virtualenv:
- Create a virtualenv at
/home/anshumanb/.virtualenvs/myvenv
- In Eclipse, Window > Preferences > PyDev > Interpreter - Python, I add a new interpreter. For the interpreter executable, I point it to the virtualenv's Python i.e.
/home/anshumanb/.virtualenvs/myenv/bin/python
- In the "Select folders to be added to PYTHONPATH" screen, I select all the paths starting with
/home/anshumanb/.virtualenvs/myvenv
AND/usr/lib/python2.7
/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2
/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk
and nothing else.
(See this for why I select/usr/lib/python2.7
,/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2
and/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk
) - When I'm back at the Interpreter - Python screen in Eclipse preferences, I hit Apply then OK
After this, whenever I install any packages into the virtualenv, I go back to the Interpreter - Python screen, hit Apply, select the interpreter that points to my virtualenv (and the one I just installed packages into) and hit Apply. PyDev then picks up any new packages installed in the virtualenv.
Note: I'm using PyDev 2.7.1 and Python 2.7.3 but on an Arch Linux box with Eclipse 4.2.1. But I don't think it'll make any difference.
