Goal

• How to setup Python virtual environment

Intro

• I had a plan to deploy my Django project on server
• However, there were already a lot of Python programs
• So, I wanted to make a special python environment containing packages which will be used in only my project

Practice

1. Install venv

• venv : the module used to create and manage virtual environments

# apt-get install python3-venv

2. Setup virtual environment

2.1. Create virtual

$ python3 -m venv [VENV_DIRECTORY]

2.2. Activate virtual environment

$ source [VENV_DIRECTORY/bin/activate
