Virtual Environemnt

Create a virtual environment on each server your app will run on and install app specific libraries in the venv

Configuration

Instructions (Django REST Backend)

Create Virtualenv virtualenv venv (USES SERVER INSTALLED PACKAGES)

virtualenv —no-site-packages venv *use no site packages to prevent virtualenv from seeing your global packages

. venv/bin/activate *allows us to just use pip from command line by adding to the path rather then full path

Activate Virtualenv source venv/bin/activate workon venv OR (if using wrapper) mkvirtualenv venv1 workon venv

Create App Specifc Library List

pip freeze > app_requirements.txt

• creates a app_requirements.txt file for future installs

Updating or installing on a new server pip install -r requirements.txt
