Sharing scripts that require a virtualenv to be activated

I have virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper installed on a shared Linux server with default settings (virtualenvs are in ~/.virtualenvs). I have several Python scripts that can only be run when the correct virtualenv is activated.

Now I want to share those scripts with other users on the server, but without requiring them to know anything about virtualenv... so they can run python scriptname or ./scriptname and the script will run with the libraries available in my virtualenv.

What's the cleanest way to do this? I've toyed with a few options (like changing the shebang line to point at the virtualenv provided interpreter), but they seem quite inflexible. Any suggestions?

Edit: This is a development server where several other people have accounts. However, none of them are Python programmers (I'm currently try开发者_如何学Cing to convert them). I just want to make it easy for them to run these scripts and possibly inspect their logic, without exposing non-Pythonistas to environment details. Thanks.

Use the following magic(5) at the start of the script.

#!/usr/bin/env python

Change which virtualenv is active and it'll use the python from that virtualenv. Deactivate the virtualenv, it still runs.

I would vote for adding a shebang line in scriptname pointing to the correct virtualenv python. You just tell your users the full path to scriptname (or put it in their PATH), and they don't even need to know it is a Python script.

If your users are programmers, then I don't see why you wouldn't want them to know/learn about virtualenv.

If it's only on one server, then flexibility is irrelevant. Modify the shebang. If you're worried about that, make a packaged, installed copy on the dev server that doesn't use the virtualenv. Once it's out of develepment, whether that's for local users or users in guatemala, virtualenv is no longer the right tool.
