How can I get a predictable virtualenv dirname?

My environment

1. Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
2. Python version: Python 2.7.12
3. Pipenv version: pipenv, version 8.3.2

What confused me?

$ echo $WORKON_HOME
/home/wonder/PyEnvs

$ pipenv --where
/home/wonder/workspace/myproj

$ pipenv --venv
/home/wonder/PyEnvs/myproj-BKbQCeJj

Why is BKbQCeJj in my virtualenv dirname? Can it be predictable? And can I custom it to be simply myproj?

Why it is a problem?

The Autocomplete-Python plugin of Atom needs to know the Python executable paths to work properly with every individual project.

I’ve been using virutalenvwrapper, which gives me predictable path names, So I can pass /home/wonder/PyEnvs/$PROJECT_NAME/bin/python to Autocomplete-Python, let it find the right python path for a project.

Now with pipenv’s postfixed paths, Autocomplete-Python stopped working. So any helps?

We’re not changing our approach here.

I wholeheartedly agree that PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT should be default! The name and location are always predictable, its just <project root>/.venv.
