\name{useBasiliskEnv}
\alias{useBasiliskEnv}
\title{Use \pkg{basilisk} environments}
\usage{
useBasiliskEnv(envpath, full.activation = NA)
}
\arguments{
\item{envpath}{String containing the path to the \pkg{basilisk} environment to use.}

\item{full.activation}{Logical scalar, see \code{\link{activateEnvironment}} for details.}
}
\value{
The function will attempt to load the specified \pkg{basilisk} environment into the R session,
possibly with the modification of some environment variables (see Details).
A \code{NULL} is invisibly returned.
}
\description{
Use \pkg{basilisk} environments for isolated execution of Python code with appropriate versions of all Python packages.
}
\details{
It is unlikely that developers should ever need to call \code{\link{useBasiliskEnv}} directly.
Rather, this interaction should be automatically handled by \code{\link{basiliskStart}}.

This function will modify a suite of environment variables as a side effect
- see \dQuote{Persistence of environment variables} in \code{?\link{basiliskStart}} for the rationale.
}
\examples{
if (.Platform$OS.type != "windows") {
 \dontshow{basilisk.utils::installConda()}

 tmploc <- file.path(tempdir(), "my_package_A")
 if (!file.exists(tmploc)) {
     setupBasiliskEnv(tmploc, c('pandas==1.4.3'))
 }

 # This may or may not work, depending on whether a Python instance
 # has already been loaded into this R session.
 try(useBasiliskEnv(tmploc))

 # This will definitely not work, as the available Python is already set.
 baseloc <- basilisk.utils::getCondaDir()
 status <- try(useBasiliskEnv(baseloc))

 # ... except on Windows, which somehow avoids tripping the error.
 stopifnot(is(status, "try-error") || basilisk.utils::isWindows())
}
