Dependencies

This process is only tested on Python 3.10. To install this version manually on macOS using Homebrew:

brew install [email protected]

You'll want to create a virtual environment first:

python3 -m venv .venv

Then, you must activate the virtual environment:

Windows (cmd.exe):

.venv\Scripts\activate.bat

Windows (PowerShell):

.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

POSIX (macOS/Linux bash/zsh):

source .venv/bin/activate

(If you have previously set up a virtual environment with another Python version, you may want to remove it with rm -rf .venv, then follow steps to create a new virtual environment linked against Python 3.10.)

Then install the required modules:

pip install -r requirements.txt

To update the list of required packages after installing a new one:

pip freeze > requirements.txt

To activate the backend:

First, activate the virtual environment using the steps above. Then, copy the .env.sample file to .env and modify it with the information it requires. Finally, this command will start the Flask server:

flask --app backend.main run
