Python recipes for Aivia (12.1.0, Sep 15, 2023)

Python virtual Environment For Aivia

General Information

The FirstTimeSetup.py script will ensure a virtual environment is created to run the python recipes for Aivia with the appropriate packages.
No further install should be needed. Hence, the script is run once only.

The recipes are then containing some code to:

• Check the existence of the virtual environment,
• Automatically activate the virtual environment to be able to run with the appropriate packages,
• Fallback on main Aivia environment which we do not recommend to modify (i.e. add new packages).

Requirements

• Python 3.9 - comes with Aivia

• Accept the risks that come from running Python Scripts you download from the internet. These scripts are provided to you to use at your own risk.
