I am new to Anaconda Python and I am setting up a project in Sublime Text 3. I have installed Anaconda and created a virtual environment using:
conda create -n python27 python=2.7 anaconda
conda create -n python35 python=3.5 anaconda
I am having trouble setting up the Virtualenvs plugin for SublimeText 3.
When I try, it asks me for a virtualenvs path which I give:
~/users/../anaconda/envs/python27
Then it asks for what I'm assuming is a path to a python distribution because it lists file paths for the system versions of python -- but not the anaconda install.
I have no real desire to use the plug in, I just want to be able to use both versions of python. Could I use a project settings file to set the version of python instead?
If you activate the environment you're interested in, you can find that answer in the environment variables.
on MacOS/Linux:
source activate python35
echo $CONDA_PREFIX
on Windows:
conda activate python35
echo %CONDA_PREFIX%
You can also run conda info --envs, and that will show the paths to all your environments.
To get the path to the instance of python being used by a particular environment, do the following:
on MacOS/Linux:
source activate python35
which python
on Windows:
conda activate python35
where python
That should return the path you're looking for.
