Python Project Setup

Today I have prepared the workflow for my Python projects.

• Win+R in the run box wt.exe to run terminal

• Use cd command to navigate to the directory where you want your project directory to be placed

• type mkdir your_project_name to create project folder

• type python -m venv .venv to create virtual environment using “venv” module or

• type conda create -n your_project_name python=3.x to create a new environment using "conda" your_project_name.

• type .venv\\Scripts\\activate on Windows or source .env/bin/activate on macOS/Linux. or conda activate your_project_name

• type type nul> your_project_name.py to create a new file for writing script

• type git init to initialize a Git repository within your project directory.

• type git add main.py or git add *

• type git commit -m "Initial commit" to commit the staged changes to the Git repository with a descriptive message.

• Open the VS Code terminal or navigate back to the project directory in your terminal

• type in vs code terminalpip install -r requirements.txt to install any required packages listed in a requirements.txt file within your project.

• type git push origin main to push your local changes to the remote repository

• type git pull origin main to pull any changes from the remote repository

• after finishing work in your project, install pyinstaller pip install pyinstalller

• type pip freeze > requirements.txt to create requirements file

• type pyinstaller your_script.py to convert your script as exe if you want

• type deactivate to deactivate the virtual environment.
