In this blog post, we will learn how to install Python packages on CloudxLab.<\/p>\n

Step 1-<\/h3>\n

Create the virtual environment for your project.\u00a0A virtual environment is a tool to keep the dependencies required by different projects in separate places, by creating virtual Python environments for them. Login to CloudxLab web console<\/a> and create a virtual environment for your project.<\/p>\n

First of all, let’s switch to python3 using:-<\/p>\n

export PATH=\/usr\/local\/anaconda\/bin:$PATH<\/pre>\n
Now let’s create a directory and the virtual environment inside it.<\/p>\n
$ mkdir my_project\n$ cd my_project\n$ python -m venv venv<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 2-<\/strong><\/h3>\n
To begin using the virtual environment, it needs to be activated:<\/p>\n
$ . venv\/bin\/activate<\/pre>\n
Remember the dot “.” at the starting of the above command. The name of the current virtual environment will now appear on the left of the prompt (e.g. (venv)[your_username@cxln4 ~]$:my_project<\/span>$)<\/span><\/code> to let you know that it\u2019s active. From now on, any package that you install using pip will be placed in the venv<\/span><\/code> folder.<\/p>\n
Step 3-\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Install packages as usual<\/p>\n
$ pip install requests\n$ pip install flask<\/pre>\n
Step 4-<\/strong><\/h2>\n
If you are done working in the virtual environment you can deactivate it:<\/p>\n
$ deactivate<\/pre>\n
Next time when you want to use the same virtual environment, go to your project directory and activate the virtual environment<\/p>\n
$ cd my_project\n$ . venv\/bin\/activate<\/pre>\n\n\n
Launching Jupyter Notebook inside your virtual environment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You can also launch jupyter notebook inside your virtual environment. For that, you need to follow the below steps:-<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 1-<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
First of all, activate your virtual environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cd my_project\n. venv\/bin\/activate<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Step 2-<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Install jupyter notebook using the following command<\/p>\n\n\n\n
pip install jupyter<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Step 3-<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Add your virtual environment to the jupyter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
python -m ipykernel install --user --name=venv<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Step 4-<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Now go to Jupyter Homepage at\u00a0https:\/\/jupyter.e.cloudxlab.com\/<\/a>. Click on “New”. There you will be able to see a kernel with the name of your virtual environment (venv). Launch notebook with that kernel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Now you can use jupyter notebook in your virtual environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
