Innovative-Approaches-to-Asset-Prediction

Running the Project

Prerequisites

Make sure you have Python installed on your system. You can download Python from python.org.

Setting Up the Environment

You can set up and run the project using either a PowerShell script (run.ps1) on Windows or a Bash script (run.sh) on Unix-like systems.

Using PowerShell (run.ps1) on Windows

1. Open PowerShell and navigate to the project directory:

   cd path\to\Innovative-Approaches-to-Asset-Prediction

2. Set the execution policy to allow running scripts if it's not already set:

   Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

3. Run the PowerShell script:

   .\run.ps1

Using Bash (run.sh) on Unix-like Systems

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the project directory:

   cd path/to/Innovative-Approaches-to-Asset-Prediction

2. Make the script executable (if it is not already):

   chmod +x run.sh

3. Run the Bash script:

   ./run.sh

What the Scripts Do

• Create a virtual environment in the project directory (if it doesn't already exist).
• Activate the virtual environment.
• Install the required dependencies listed in requirements.txt.

These scripts automate the setup and execution process, making it easier to get the project up and running.

Additional Notes

• Ensure that your terminal or PowerShell has the necessary permissions to execute scripts.
• If you encounter any issues with the execution policy in PowerShell, you might need to run PowerShell as an administrator to change the execution policy.
• The virtual environment directory is named .venv and is located in the project root directory.
