# Autoadd-bindir

Automatically add the bin-directory of your virtualenv to the ``PATH``-environment variable
via ``sitecustomize``-entrypoint. You now no  longer need to manually *activate* your
virtual environment for the sole purpose of adding thie bin-drectory to your ``$PATH``.

## How does it work?

We register the ``autoadd_bin.entrypoint()``-function to the ``sitecustomize``-module that is installed by the
[sitecustomize-entrypoints](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/sitecustomize-entrypoints)-package.

The registered function will look up ``sys.prefix`` of your python-executable and
add the corresponding bin-directory to the ``PATH``.


## Installation

Install via pip:

```bash
> bin/pip install autoadd-bindir
```

Or add to your poetry-based project:

```bash
> poetry add autoadd-bindir
```


## Validate & Usage
After installing this package there is nothing left to do explicitly.
We can validate that the plugin work correctly by starting a python-session and checking the ``PATH``-environment-variable:

```bash
> bin/python
```

```python
>>> import os
>>> print(os.getenv("PATH"))
    "<path-to-your-virtualenv>/bin", ...
```


## Registered sitecustomize-entrypoint

The ``autoadd_bindir``-function is registered as a ``sitecustomize``-entrypoint in our pyproject.toml_:

``` toml
    [tool.poetry.plugins]
    [tool.poetry.plugins."sitecustomize"]
    autoadd_bindir = "autoadd_bindir:entrypoint"
```

Sitecustomize and all its registered entrypoints will be executed at the start of *every* python-process.
For more information, please see [sitecustomize-entrypoints](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/sitecustomize-entrypoints)
