Setting up Virtual Environment


Venv is a tool that creates an isolated environment separate from other projects. Creating a virtual environment allows us to work on a Python project without affecting other projects that also use Python and their dependencies.


Install pip first

sudo apt-get install python3-pip

Then install venv

sudo apt install python3-venv

Now create a virtual environment

python3 -m venv {name_of_virtual_environment}

Activate your virtual environment:

source {name_of_virtual_environment}/bin/activate

Install all dependencies from requirements.txt

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

To deactivate:

deactivate

Run the project using uvicorn by executing the following command

uvicorn main:app --reload
