Hey!
Those of who you write Python code probably know tox[1], a tool used to
manage tests/builds for Python. It uses virtualenv[2], which allows
developers to create "isolated" environments and install packages
without polluting their systems.
I hacked tox to replace virtualenv with "guix environment". The code is
available at https://git.framasoft.org/Steap/guix-tox , in the
"guix-tox" branch (the master branch is just a mirror of tox). Note that
I will probably use "git push -f" on this branch :) I explained the
details in README.rst.
If there are Python developers on this list, I would love to know what
they think about this. I intend to propose a 20 minute talk about
guix-tox at the next PyConFR.
print("Happy Hacking!")
Cyril.

This is great! I've also been very interested in "guix environment" as
a universal virtualenv. Replacing tox is an excellent example/usage!
Main challenge right now is getting enough python packages (not to
mention all those javascript dependencies...) packaged to be usable for
many things tox is used for. But that's a more general problem right
now! :)
Hack on,
- Chris

This is great! I'll have a look at it this week end.

Nice!

I wondering whether it is possible to use the same recipe for `guix
environment` and `guix container`. The idea behind that is that one can
use environment for dev and container for deployment.

The patch series that David posted adds a --container option to ‘guix
environment’, so you get isolated containers for free.
Keep up the good work, Cyril! :-)
