how to configure several ansible+mitogen envrionments on one linux ?

[dcpc007]

Hello,

We still have some old big projects in ansible2.6 + mitogen 0.2.10, and newer ones (or in migration) to ansible 6 + mitogen 0.3.

Then i need to switch ansible-playbook commands from one env to the other.

My current solution is not perfect :

• i install the 2 mitogen binaries in 2 folders + a symlink to activate one version
• i made 2 pipenv for each ansible
• i have 2 bash script to activate one or other version :

#!/bin/zsh
sudo ln -sfn /usr/local/bin/mitogen-0.3.4 /usr/local/bin/mitogen
cdir=$(pwd) && export cdir && PIPENV_PIPFILE=/home/user/python/ansible6.7/Pipfile pipenv shell "cd ${cdir} && pip -V"

I would pipenv install mitogen=0.x.x in my pipenv, but it doesn't provide the binary that match ansible.cfg config :

strategy_plugins   = /usr/local/bin/mitogen/ansible_mitogen/plugins/strategy
strategy = mitogen_linear

Here is the Pipfile for 6.7 :

[[source]]
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true
name = "pypi"

[packages]
ansible = "==6.7.0"
kubernetes = "*"

[dev-packages]
ansible-lint = "*"

[requires]
python_version = "3.11"

and for 2.9 :

[[source]]
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true
name = "pypi"

[packages]
ansible = "==2.9.27"
jinja2 = "*"
(mitogen = "==0.2.10") --> it's a try but no binary installed with this it seems ?

[dev-packages]
ansible-lint = "==5.4.0"

[requires]
python_version = "3.11"

Note : i'm thinking on another solution too :
generate custom docker images including python + ansible + mitogen, and map volumes to known path corresponding to system binary + ansible.cfg configured paths...

thx for your feedbacks.
