How to use poetry to maintain a local python install?

[justrajdeep]

Hi Experts

I am using poetry to maintain my own version of python since i cannot install a global python without admin access.

So i created a wrapper script like this ...

> \cat ~/bin/python               
#!/bin/bash

set -e

source ~/bin/scripts/emacs_python/.venv/bin/activate

~/bin/scripts/emacs_python/.venv/bin/python3 $@

it works for most parts but

when i try to do

python -c "for i in range(1000): print(i)" 

it Errors

 python -c "for i in range(1000): print(i)"       
  File "<string>", line 1
    for
       ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I can solve this if i symbolically link ~/bin/scripts/emacs_python/.venv/bin/python3 to ~/bin/python but then when i run my script it errors saying that my poetry added modules are not available.

Can someone please help?

Poetry is not a python manager, it only uses the Pythons you have installed.
