mise setup

[[mise]]

https://mise.jdx.dev/

The front-end to your dev env

installation

Ensure the path is set for ~/.local/bin.

curl https://mise.jdx.dev/install.sh | sh
echo 'eval "$(~/.local/bin/mise activate zsh)"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

global setup

mise use -g [email protected]
mise use -g node@21
mise use -g [email protected]  # or [email protected] or whichever version preferred

# confirm config file location
mise config

# confirm the installed versions
mise ls

# enable python venv creation
mise settings set python_venv_auto_create true

# update existing ones if newer minor version exists
# such as python 3.11.6 to 3.11.7
mise up

mise use fails?

Check if that machine has the dependencies installed such as below for python. This was missing on my raspberry pi machine.

https://devguide.python.org/getting-started/setup-building/#install-dependencies

sudo apt install build-essential gdb lcov pkg-config \
      libbz2-dev libffi-dev libgdbm-dev libgdbm-compat-dev liblzma-dev \
      libncurses5-dev libreadline6-dev libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev \
      lzma lzma-dev tk-dev uuid-dev zlib1g-dev

project-local setup

To setup a project-local code settings, the same mise use without -g option suffice. Very simple.

python venv in a project

Running mise use [email protected] will let mise create ./.mise.toml file which tells mise and the shell to use specific python.

Modify the toml file to enable the use of venv in that project.

```toml:.mise.toml [tools] python = {version='3.11', virtualenv='.venv'}

## when using together with poetry

<https://github.com/mise-plugins/mise-poetry>

```shell
# add plugin
mise plugin add poetry

# apply fix to the poetry installation script as described in
# https://github.com/mise-plugins/mise-poetry/issues/9#issue-2115926798
# the installation script is at ~/.local/share/mise/plugins/poetry/bin/install

# and mise use poetry
mise use poetry

# might want to check and change the mise-poetry configs
# such as venv creation and venv dir
# https://python-poetry.org/docs/configuration/

# when working on a repository with poetry setup
poetry install --no-root --sync
