## Provide an virtual environment for python engine
Benefit: having a separate virtual environment for your editor than the one
your working into.
Install `pyenv` with the [`pyenv-installer`][9].
Install the python version you need with `pyenv`:
```bash
pyenv install 3.9.9
```
Create and name the virtual environment for neovim:
```bash
pyenv virtualenv 3.9.9 neovim
```
Activate the virtual environment and fetch the python path:
```bash
pyenv activate neovim
pyenv which python #Note the provided path
```
Add the following line to your `init.vim`:
```init.vim
let g:python3_host_prog = '/full/path/to/neovim/bin/python
```
Install the python dependencies in the virtual environment as it is activated:
```bash
pip install neovim pynvim …
```
To deactivate the virtual environment:
```bash
pyenv deactivate
```
