Installation pyenv (for Linux-Ubuntu)

Note: I tested these steps with Ubuntu-20.04 and Ubuntu distribution under WSL

1. Update OS

sudo apt update -y

2. Install relevant libraries

sudo apt install -y make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget curl llvm libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev xz-utils tk-dev libffi-dev liblzma-dev python-openssl git

3. Get last pyenv from GitHub

git clone https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv.git ~/.pyenv

4. Update bashrc file

echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.bashrc echo 'export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc echo 'eval "$(pyenv init --path)"' >> ~/.bashrc

5. Restart shell

exec "$SHELL"

6. Check pyenv version (validation step)

pyenv --version
