Issues running pipenv & pyenv

I am unable do activate virtualenv using pipenv shell with python managed by pyenv.

Here is the output of my terminal:

roger@ohm:/tmp/lab $ pipenv --venv
No virtualenv has been created for this project yet!

P.S. You have excellent taste! ✨ 🍰 ✨
roger@ohm:/tmp/lab $ pipenv shell
ERROR: The virtualenv hasn't been activated correctly.
Either the env is corrupted (try running `pew restore env`),
Or an upgrade of your Python version broke your env,
Or check the contents of your $PATH. You might be adding new directories to it
from inside your shell's configuration file.
In this case, for further details please see: https://github.com/berdario/pew#the-environment-doesnt-seem-to-be-activated

I followed the steps of the URL above, changing PATH order, but no sucess.

pyenv does some weird things, and isn’t recommended.

What weird things are you referring to? I’ve used pyenv for years and have never had problems with pip, virtualenv, or any other packages I’ve installed.

How else do people manage the installation and selection of multiple Python versions? I think the usage of pyenv is more common than you let on. 😄

Just install Pipenv anywhere (as long as you can run it), and yes, it would just work. You don’t even need to add the shim directory to PATH or pyenv global anything (basically you don’t need the shims). All you need to set is the PYENV_ROOT environment variable.
