Answers:

mkvirtualenv creates virtualenvs in $WORKON_HOME, that is your virtualenv is in $HOME/.virtualenvs/cv/.

You can use which to find out which binary will be executed…

For example:

$ which python3
/home/attie/projects/thing/venv/bin/python3

By default it just shows the first match, but you can give the -a argument to show all:

$ which -a python3
/home/attie/projects/thing/venv/bin/python3
/usr/bin/python3

There is VIRTUAL_ENV system variable already set with the path.

Check <your_venv>/bin/activate (which is a simple script) to see how the virtual env is setup in general, but this variable will give you the clean path already:

echo $VIRTUAL_ENV
<full virtual env path>
