Custom pip.conf per virtualenv

[ffissore]

Hi all, and thank you for the amazing pyenv.

I would like to use a custom pip index with a specific virtualenv. We are using a custom pip registry (sonatype) and I've configured ~/.config/pip/pip.conf accordingly. When I use python for personal projects, I have to edit the config file and comment out the index entry.

Is there a way to have a pip.conf file which is specific to a virtualenv?

It might be possible by creating a new etc folder for the virtualenv, and setting PIP_CONFIG_FILE to that path + pip.conf

According to https://chadrick-kwag.net/adding-pip-config-file-in-virtualenv/ , you can simply put a pip.conf into the virtualenv directory. https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/topics/configuration/#location confirms that.
