Virtual Environment¶
It is recommended to use pdpy
within a virtual environment.
To set a virtual environment with python3
, you can follow this instructions.
Create¶
Note
pdpy
requires python version 3.9 or greater.
To start, you need to create the virtual environment.
You only need to do this once; you can reuse your venv
later on.
For this, you need a path to a common folder.
The examples in this documentation use ~/.pdpy
as a default path:
python3 -m venv ~/.pdpy
Source¶
To use your virtual envirnoment, you need to source
it on your terminal.
You do this with the following command:
source ~/.pdpy/bin/activate
The terminal window should read something like this:
(.pdpy) user:dir user$
Installing¶
The next thing you’d want to do is install the necessary packages to your venv
, for example:
pip install pyaudio
