How can I deactivate multiple Python virtual environments at once?

How can I deactivate multiple Python virtual environments at once?

You can deactivate each virtual environment individually by using the command deactivate in each terminal where they are active.

Is there a way to automate this process?

Yes, you can create a shell script that deactivates all active environments by iterating through the list of active processes.

Can you show me an example of such a script?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

#!/bin/bash
for env in $(conda env list | awk '{print $1}' | tail -n +3); do
  conda deactivate $env
done

This script deactivates all conda environments.

What if I'm using virtualenv instead of conda?

For virtualenv, you can modify the script to deactivate each environment by specifying their paths. Just replace the conda deactivate command with the appropriate deactivate command for virtualenv.
