Python environments

Pyenv

See all installed and available versions

pyenv versions

To list all installation options that are available to us.

pyenv install -l | grep \ \ 3

The \ \ 3 gives me only the version 3 ones. The output contains two spaces on each line, hence the escaped spaces \ \ .

To install a version, just run

pyenv install <full-version>

To set the local python version for the current directory, run:

pyenv local 3.11.1

This will create/update a .python-version file in the current directory.
