Tutorial how to run this script in an virtual python environment on your computer.
(If you want to learn more visit this or this site)
$ pip install virtualenv
Test your installation:
$ virtualenv --version
If it doesn't work (bash doesn't know this command make sure you have installed python and try this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/41429177/7827128
Go into a directory where you want to place the virtual environment and enter:
$ virtualenv project_name
This will create a virtual environment in the new created folder project_name.
Now copy all the files (or the whole folder) in this new directory project_name.
Be sure that you edit all paths to this new path!!
Now lets's activate the virtual environment.
Go into the folder project_name and enter:
$ source bin/activate
You should see (project_name) at the left of your terminal.
Before you can run the project you need to install the required packages (because the virtual environment has no packages besides the default packages installed).
This can be achieved by installing the packages that are listed in the requirements.txt file over this command:
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
If you copied the folder you obviously need to enter it cd folder_name that the path to the file requirements.txt is right.
If you did everything and changed all paths to the new path of the virtual environment you should now be good to go and able to run this python script!
Have fun programming!
If you want to exit the virtual environment and get back to your system just type:
$ deactivate
If you want that others also can run this script on their computers using virtualenv run this command:
$ pip freeze > requirements.txt
And upload the file with your script so that everyone can simply install via step 5 all required packages.
Just deactivate it like in step 8 and remove the whole directory. Now it's deleted.
