How do I add a path to PYTHONPATH in virtualenv

Question

I am trying to add a path to the PYTHONPATH environment variable, that would be only visible from a particular virtualenv environment.

I tried SET PYTHONPATH=

Answer 1

import sys
import os

print(str(sys.path))

dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
print("current working dir: %s" % dir_path)

sys.path.insert(0, dir_path)

I strongly suggest you use virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper to avoid cluttering the path.
