If your Python code has native code under the hood (eg. Numpy) this two-step is very much a 'step1: circle, step 2: draw the rest of owl' description of production deployment.
- Doxin 5y agoIf you're deploying to a server you'll want to pip install dependencies on the server. If you're using docker you'll want to pip install dependencies in your container. If you're deploying to an end users computer you'll want to use pyinstaller, which admittedly is not trivial to get working in all cases.
- gjvc 5y agoThis is exactly my point. .venv/ needs to live in the project deployment directory, and needs a wrapper script to use the python binary/symlink therein. Isolate the project from the python runtime it uses, and you'll always have the right set of packages installed. None of this is perfect, but an in-tree .venv/ and convenience scripts seems to be the least-worst option.
