I use my own Zsh project (zpy) to manage venvs stored like ~/.local/share/venvs/HASH-OF-PROJECT-PATH/venv
, so use zpy’s vpy
function to launch a script with its associated Python executable ad-hoc, or add a full path shebang to the script with zpy’s vpyshebang
function.
vpy and vpyshebang in the docs
If anyone else is a Zsh fan and has any questions, I’m more than happy to answer or demo.
I have a pip-tools wrapper thing that now optionally uses uv instead. Aside from doing the pip-tools things faster, the main advantage I’ve found, and what really motivated me to support and recommend uv with it, is that uv creates new venvs MUCH faster than python’s venv module, which is really annoyingly slow for that operation.
