I am using PyDev for Eclipse as my IDE and pip as my package management tool, running virtualenv.
Every time I want to use/include some new libraries or new dependencies in my project, I add them into the pip-requires file. The dependencies are installed in my virtual environment with no problem after running pip install -r pip-requires
.

Questions:
Update:
Env/bin/python
as the interpreter as the screenshot indicates, some of the basic modules are not resolved in eclipse, eg. import copy, import json
etc. should I use default /usr/bin/python
as interpreter and just add virtual env site-package
to the PYTHONPATH? so that I can resolve both standard python libraries(eg. json) and my own project dependencies? Make sure your system PYTHONPATH include the site-packages folder when you choose python interpreter from your virtualenv. Just like the snapshot.
Then you don't need to add them one by one into PYTHONPATH. You will need to restart eclipse (Refresh doesn't work). New models will be added.
Update: I checked the PYTHONPATH in the virtualenv. I found there are some other paths in the sys.path. They are the system default python installed location. These path includes the basic models, like copy
and json
.
PS: My environment is Max OSX 10.8. Please check the output of your own platform by print sys.path

I think this is the requirement of virtualenv. You need to add these paths into pydev system PYTHONPATH. Then you can use these basic modules.
From your questions I understood that you're manually adding the Python Egg packages to the path. Instead of doing this, you can just go to the Project Settings window, then open "PyDev - PYTHONPATH", navigate to the panel called "External Libraries" and add the whole site-packages
folder of your virtual environment, usually /path/to/virtualenv/lib/site-packages/
. This way you won't add the Eggs one by one for each packages. When you install a new package, just go to the Eclipse window and if the import is still not resolved, select the project and press the F5
key, to refresh the project.
Hopefully, that should work for you. Good luck.
This is how I go about setting up PyDev with a virtualenv:
/home/anshumanb/.virtualenvs/myvenv
/home/anshumanb/.virtualenvs/myenv/bin/python
/home/anshumanb/.virtualenvs/myvenv
AND /usr/lib/python2.7
/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2
/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk
and nothing else. /usr/lib/python2.7
, /usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2
and /usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk
) After this, whenever I install any packages into the virtualenv, I go back to the Interpreter - Python screen, hit Apply, select the interpreter that points to my virtualenv (and the one I just installed packages into) and hit Apply. PyDev then picks up any new packages installed in the virtualenv.
Note: I'm using PyDev 2.7.1 and Python 2.7.3 but on an Arch Linux box with Eclipse 4.2.1. But I don't think it'll make any difference.
