How to source virtualenv activate in a Bash script

by

When you source, you’re loading the activate script into your active shell.

When you do it in a script, you load it into that shell which exits when your script finishes and you’re back to your original, unactivated shell.

Your best option would be to do it in a function

activate () {
  . ../.env/bin/activate
}

or an alias

alias activate=". ../.env/bin/activate"

Hope this helps.
