'Deactivate pyenv in current shell

My .bashrc has this:

enable-pyenv () {
    # Load pyenv automatically by adding
    # the following to your profile:

    export PATH="$HOME/.pyenv/bin:$PATH"
    eval "$(pyenv init -)"
    eval "$(pyenv virtualenv-init -)"
}

enable-pyenv

Which enables pyenv. In some situations, I want to (temporarily) disable pyenv. How can I do this?

python pyenv

Solution 1:^[1]

If you want to use the python version from your system:

pyenv local system

Solution 2:^[2]

To deactivate from current shell environment, try
pyenv shell --unset

Solution 3:^[3]

I'm not sure that this will get rid of all traces of pyenv, but editing your $PATH environment variable to get rid of the pyenv- or shim-containing paths seems to deactivate pyenv. Eg,

export PATH=`echo $PATH | python -c "import sys, re; print(':'.join(x for x in sys.stdin.read().strip().split(':') if not 'pyenv' in x))"`

If you want to be able to re-enable it, just store your previous $PATH so you can restore it later.

Try playing around with some variants of:

env -i bash

env -i bash -l

env -i bash --norc

env -i bash --norc --noprofile

This does not come without side effects as env -i nukes your whole session and thus afterwards a lot of convenience like $HOME is gone with the bathwater, but so is pyenv.

None of the posted answers worked for me but the following did:

$ echo "" > /home/myusername/.pyenv/version

Solution 6:^[6]

For me, what worked ultimately was the brute force method of removing all pyenv paths from the $PATH variable:

 PATH=`echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n' | sed '/pyenv/d' | tr '\n' ':' | sed -r 's/:$/\n/'`

I wish pyenv offered a better way by itself.

Solution 7:^[7]

I use this but not sure if it is a good way

bash

Solution 8:^[8]

I have macOS Monterey, v12.0.1. Prophet was successfully installed using python 3.8. It did NOT work with 3.9 versions. I use pyenv to create virtual env. That is what I did:

pip3 install virtualenv

pip3 install virtualenvwrapper

brew install pyenv-virtualenv

You need these commands to have virtual env running under pyenv. Next, install python

pyenv install 3.8.10

Create env called 'prophet':

pyenv virtualenv 3.8.10 prophet

Activate it in your working directory:

pyenv local prophet

Install 2 packages:

pip install pystan==2.19.1.1

pip install prophet

It worked fine for me!

Solution 9:^[9]

pyenv shell system

You can use the pyenv shell command to set this environment variable in your current shell session.
