Is it possible to switch between conda and virtualenv? That is I want to switch the actual environment managers not just environments in them … I typically use conda but want to try something out that requires virtual env and is not compatible with conda. Thanks.

What is it that "requires virtualenv", most things I know don't require anything other than an interpreter and dependencies

i don’t see why you couldn’t use a virtualenv for virtualenv things and conda for conda things. the issue is when you try to mix them together but as long as you’re pointed at the right python interpreter things should work.

with virtualenv you activate the environment and it does a lot of handy little things for you like setting the python python.

that’s where we would run into our first issue. we wouldn’t want to be using the conda one. we would want something like the system python, i believe.

conda sets the path to point to its bin directory … so I may need a way to not do that when trying to do virtualenv/zapp stuff … before I can activate the zappa env (if I understand this correctly).
