pyenv lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python. It's
simple, unobtrusive, and follows the UNIX tradition of single-purpose
tools that do one thing well.
This project was forked from rbenv and
ruby-build, and modified for Python.
pyenv does...
Let you change the global Python version on a per-user basis.
Provide support for per-project Python versions.
Allow you to override the Python version with an environment
variable.
Search commands from multiple versions of Python at a time
This may be helpful to test across Python versions with tox.
In contrast with pythonbrew and pythonz, pyenv does not...
Depend on Python itself. pyenv was made from pure shell scripts
There is no bootstrap problem of Python.
Need to be loaded into your shell. Instead, pyenv's shim
approach works by adding a directory to your $PATH.
As he makes an incredible work by taking time to merge the Pull Request on his fork, I (@gcuisinier) am in discussion with him to take part of jEnv directly if he wants
Whatever his decision, I thank him for his work, and to have convincing me to think about the future of jEnv and accepting a new maintainer for the good of the project.
What's jEnv ?
This is an updated fork of jenv, a beloved Java environment manager adapted from rbenv.
jenv gives you a few critical affordances for using java on development machines:
It lets you switch between java versions. This is useful when developing Android applications, which generally require Java 8 for its tools, versus server applications, which use later versions like Java 11.
If the goal is only to play your software against a specific version of Python, I am using pyenv.
I found it very easy to set up and to run.
As soon as Python is on my machine, I am installing pyenv.
If you look for something similar for java (I had to some time ago and that was kind of hard to find 😄), you can use jenv (see below).
