    In my older virtualenv video, I got a ton of requests to show how to use virtual environments on Windows. I hope this helps!

      Hey Corey, thank you as always, i was trying to debug a Python for loop and was not sure if you talk about it anywhere. Also realized that sublime text 3 does not actually feature a python debugger, would appreciate your thoughts on this.

      Thank you for all your videos. You should do one someday for pipenv!

    in short
    (i am assuming you have activated virtual environment)
    type: pip freeze
    (you will see all requirements)
    copy all to requirements.txt (16:40 observe copying process carefully)
    //(make sure requirements.txt is in project folder)
    type: deactivate
    (venv will be deactivated)
    type: pip install -r .
    equirements.txt
    (all requirements will be installed)
    type:.\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
    (activating environment)

    Thanks @Corey Schafer. trying to follow some Django tutorial on TH-cam but just couldn't activate the virtual env, windows would accept the CMD but won't activate the venv :
    Setup: win 10, gitbash, python 3.7
    Create the venv: python -m venv my_dir
    Activate the venv: source my_dir/Scripts/activate
    Stackoverflow to the rescue. Love your work btw thanks from the rest of us.

    Just to add something to this great tutorial. we can dump the result of "pip freeze" into "requirements.txt" file by doing
    pip freeze > requirements.txt
    removing the need to copy the pip freeze results manually.

    • @FordExplorer-rm6ew
      @FordExplorer-rm6ew 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know right.
      They didn't used to have all this info for coding.
      It's the one thing Google actually gets right.
      Which shows they know how to recommend content. (This is significant because normally they suppress content)
      (They normally suppress any good non coding related content like debates bloodsports, shitposting channels etc etc,
      But coding info they've been very good at)
