Testing Python 3 with commands and playbooks

You can also install Ansible using :program:`pip` for Python3 which will make the default
:command:`/usr/bin/ansible` run with Python3:
.. code-block:: shell
$ virtualenv py3-ansible
$ source ./bin/activate
$ pip3 install ansible
$ ansible --version|grep python
python version = 3.5.3 (default, May 10 2017, 15:05:55) [GCC 6.3.1 20161221 (Red Hat 6.3.1-1)]
.. note:: Individual Linux distribution packages may be packaged for Python2 or Python3. When running from
distro packages you'll only be able to use Ansible with the Python version for which it was
installed. Sometimes distros will provide a means of installing for several Python versions
(via a separate package or via some commands that are run after install). You'll need to check
with your distro to see if that applies in your case.
