学习flask，安装virtualenv环境，这些带都ok，但是一安装包总是出错无法安装，
比如这样超时的问题：

为什么总是失败？自己操作老标准了，这么简单的几个小步骤还老是出错，不由得让我怀疑是否是撞墙了，可是又懒得买vpn去翻~~一墙，
无法代理又无法翻~~一墙，被逼着想到了使用镜像的方法了，一些公共的网站在国内总有一些镜像，使用这些镜像地址来安装就可以了
有了目的性搜索很快就搜索到了，
http://e.pypi.python.org/这个就是官网了，清华大学提供的
建议非清华大学校内的使用这个镜像： http://e.pypi.python.org/simple(这也是一个http://pypi.v2ex.com/simple)，清华校内的就使用这个：http://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/pypi/simple
使用镜像的方法可以在每次执行pip的时候加上参数"-i http://e.pypi.python.org/simple"即可，
或者也可以在本地配置，这样就不用每次都加上参数了，应用Cheer Xiao的配置（http://blog.makto.me/post/2012-11-01/pypi-mirror）：
使用pip的用户可以如下配置： 在unix和macos，配置文件为：$HOME/.pip/pip.conf
在windows上，配置文件为：%HOME%\pip\pip.ini 需要在配置文件内加上： [global]
index-url=http://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/pypi/simple
还有一个小技巧，就是把所有要安装的包写在一个文件里面，比如requirement.txt(每个包写一行，顶行头写)，然后pip安装的时候只需要加参数“-r requirement.txt”即可。
安装好之后体验了一把，速度飕飕的，感觉就一个字：爽~~
ps:
使用步骤：
1.进入目录下使用命令：virtualenv env
2.source env/bin/activate，这时候你会发现命令行前面会多出个（env）标识，这表明你已经进入了虚拟环境了。
写个简单的hello.py验证：
#!/usr/bin/python
from flask import Flask app = Flask(__name__) @app.route('/', methods = ['GET', 'POST'])
def hello():
return 'Hello world!' if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
提示没有flask包，使用上面的方法pip之，pip install -i http://e.pypi.python.org/simple flask,速度超快，安装之，运行，OK。
解惑：为什么这样安装酒OK了？而且不会对系统的原有的包造成影响？
查看env目录下的内容，发现在env/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages目录下有这些安装的包，比如我的下面有这些：
distribute-0.6.24-py2.7.egg itsdangerous-0.23-py2.7.egg-info Jinja2-2.7.1-py2.7.egg-info setuptools.pth
easy-install.pth itsdangerous.py markupsafe werkzeug
flask itsdangerous.pyc MarkupSafe-0.18-py2.7.egg-info Werkzeug-0.9.3-py2.7.egg-info
Flask-0.10.1-py2.7.egg-info jinja2 pip-1.1-py2.7.egg
这就是虚拟机的作用了。
终于可以安心的把精力集中到flask上了。

直接安装flask会安装最新0.10的版本，很悲剧的是很多扩展包还没跟上此版本，所以很多功能没法用哦~~比如Falsk-Mail的版本
所以还是重新安装Flask的0.9版本，不过这也不是个事，有了envitualenv后环境非常容易，今天试了 -i http://e.pypi.python.org/simple竟然不行了 = =！，找到这个镜像地址不错http://pypi.v2ex.com/simple
哦，安装Flask0.9版本也很容易，直接pip install Flask==0.9即可。
配置入下
gedit ~/.pip/pip.conf 然后
