My friend just shared the existence of this software with me, and it looks perfect for me. His setup uses docker though, and mine doesn’t. The non-docker instructions seem simple enough, but I can’t figure out how to install the requirements. The “pip install” complains and says I should use apt, but I can’t find most of those requirements in my sources. For example “python3-verboselogs” isn’t found. Can someone help? I’d love to get this running!
A virtual environment is just a copy of the python and pip binaries. When you activate the venv, the venv dirs temporarily get added to your path, so your regular python alias points to the binary in the venv (run
which python
with venv active to verify). Pip will install modules to a subdir of your venv. It basically works like npm and the node_modules dir.On second read, maybe you already knew that.
