I set up a Python virtual environment in 'Visual Studio Code'. Here is the full path to my python interpreter:
"C:\Users\Hamid\Desktop\VisualStudio.venv\Scripts\python.exe"
I am creating an Azure function. I have the following files in my folder:
In my requirements.txt file I have the names of the Python packages I need installed for my main Python script. When I run the following command in the terminal:
pip install -r requirements.txt
I get the following message:
Requirement already satisfied: azure-functions in c:\users\hamid\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages (from -r requirements.txt (line 5)) (1.12.0)
The Terminal doesn't seem to be connected to my Virtual Python environment. How can I set the terminal up so that it connects to the virtual enviornment?.
I came across two suggestions on stackoverflow. I tried to manually set the python interpreter and I also pressed ctrl+shift+' to reset the terminal. Unfortunately both methods did not work for me.
One of the workarounds is to activate the virtual environment and change the function run path to virtual environment folder in the VS Code terminal:
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
OR
set-executionpolicy remotesigned
.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
OR
when you open the project in VS Code, you'll get the dialog box like below and click on yes:
and freeze the requirements file using the cmdlet
pip freeze > requirements.txt`
Refer to few of my workarounds SO Thread1 and Thread2 in regards of Virtual Environment activating in Azure Functions
I am getting an error when trying to run pip through Spyder 5.0.3
I have recently installed Spyder 5.0.3 on my machine from https://www.spyder-ide.org/
When I attempt to exectute "pip --version" on IPython in Spyder I get the following error message:
Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
How do I fix this so I can run pip in IPython Spyder?
The standalone installer for Windows available in the Spyder website doesn't have pip in it. If you want to use or install a specific package outside of the ones that are shipped with the standalone installer you will need to go with the modular approach to use Spyder (create an environment and select his python executable as the interpreter that Spyder will use).
For that you will need to:
Install a python distribution as for example miniforge: https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/tree/4.10.1-3#download
Create a new python environment, install spyder-kernels and the packages you want to use in it.
Set the Spyder interpreter preference to point to the environment created.
The Spyder GitHub wiki has a page that explains the process to setup some of this elements: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/wiki/Working-with-packages-and-environments-in-Spyder#the-modular-approach
Unable to run the rasa init command and getting following error:
'rasa' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I have following version of RASA in my environment:
rasa-core 0.13.2
rasa-core-sdk 0.12.2
rasa-nlu 0.14.6
rasa-sdk 1.2.0
Sams answer is right. Rasa is probably not in your environment variable path.
Have you already tried:
py -m rasa init
or
python -m rasa init
If this doesn't work you may find answers at the rasa community forum
Did you try pip based installation as mentioned here
You can do
pip install rasa
If you have already done that I suspect that you need to add rasa in the environment variable PATH
Also are you using virtualenv? or conda environment? I would suggest using that to do the installation.
I had this issue with python 3.9. It worked after downgrading the python version to 3.8. It required recreating my conda environment.
Hopefully you got it working by now, but if not you can either
1) Try setting the Python path in Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables. (ideally we want it in a top-level folder)
2) Re-install Python using the graphical installer. Run the regular Python installer as administrator. BE SURE to click the little ‘Add to PATH’ checkbox, or all this will be for naught!! (For me personally this is a lot easier than manually adjusting the path in environment variables.)
Then choose “Custom install location.” Clicking “Install for all users” should automatically change the install path to the C:Program Files folder.
3) You may also be able to do this without a full reinstall by selecting Programs > Programs and Features > Modify/Repair.
Go to Settings -> Manage App Execution Aliases -> Turn Python Off - since I had both Python and Python3 enabled, the VSCODE was not letting me access the virtual environment I created in the Project Folder. This solved my issue.
Wrong Path in cmd Terminal of VSCODE:
C:\User....\Project>rasa --version
'rasa' was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases.
Correct Path in cmd Terminal of VSCODE (after turning off Python in Computer App Settings):
(venv) C:\User....\Project>rasa --version
Rasa Version : 2.3.4
Rasa SDK Version : 2.3.1
Rasa X Version : 0.37.1
Python Version : 3.7.10
The accepted answer says to set the environment variables which made me curious but the problem is I do not know the rasa installation path to set the environment variables.
Step 1:
So I'll write down how I figured this out. First, if you don't have the Anaconda package manager install it from the official website. (While installing click the checkbox to add Anaconda to your PATH environment variable.)
Step 2:
Now open up the anaconda prompt and go to the directory where you want to run rasa.
Step 3:
Then we can create a new conda environment by running conda create --name installingrasa python==3.8.5 to keep all of our dependencies together in a centralized place. Finally activate the environment by conda activate installingrasa
Step 4:
Install UJSON and Tensorflow that will help us to work with rasa.
conda install ujson
conda install tensorflow
Step 5:
Ultimately we can install rasa. Here we are going to install it via pip rather than conda. (there is no conda version fr rasa at the moment I'm writing this)
pip install rasa
Step 6:
In order to run Tensorflow on windows, we need to download visual c++ separately. Find the executable from the official website. And now we can run rasa init without errors and initialize new bot.
try this code while creating a virtual environment
conda create --name filename python==3.8
Looks like this is an issue of python 3.9. After playing around a lot with 3.9, I downgraded my python to 3.8 and it worked without a glitch.
You can create a conda environment with a different python version by using the option python==3.8 in the conda create command line.
The above solutions didn't worked for me.
After a lot of searching I found that rasa was located at C:\Users\tejas\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python36\Scripts\rasa.py (installed using pip install rasa)
As I was working anaconda environment named as(RASA)
I didn’t found rasa.py at C:\Users\tejas\anaconda3\envs\RASA\Scripts nor in
C:\Users\tejas\anaconda3\Scripts
So I just copy pasted rasa.py at these 2 locations and it worked for me in anaconda environment.
You might forget to install the rasa package. You can follow the steps to install rasa on your machine.
Create a new virtual environment named venv
You can also install rasa without virtual environment. but it would be better to track the dependencies if we are in a virtual environment.
python3 -m venv venv
Activate the virtual environment
For windows: venv\Scripts\activate
For Ubuntu: source ./venv/bin/activate
Install rasa package
pip3 install -U pip
pip3 install rasa
For more: Rasa installation
Try this command,
pip3 install -U --user pip && pip3 install rasa
It worked for me, This command will upgrade your pip to the latest version, and rasa will be successfully installed, and check it by typing rasa --version.
If it still doesn't work, download the python 3.7 version using miniconda,set the environment using miniconda, and then install rasa using this command again
I was attempting to use anaconda to download tensorflow. I followed the guide character by character. Anaconda downloaded and installed. I used the command:
c:>conda create -n tensorflow python=3.5
which worked, then I used:
c:> activate tensorflow
Which failed to change to a # prompt. So I tried using pip install and got an error message:
'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this?
Did you mean to use:
conda create -n tensorflow tensorflow python=3.5
the conda command:
conda install -n <env_name> <package>
translates your code
conda install -n tensorflow pythong-3.5
tells conda to:
- create a new environment,
- that you want your new environment to be named tensorflow, and to
- install python version 3.5 in the environment you just created.
You did not actually tell conda to install TensorFlow.
Personally, I prefer to name my environment, then change into it to install packages:
conda create -n new_env_name python=3.5
source activate new_env_name
conda install tensorflow numpy pandas matplotlib
* Note: if you are on Windows, you may need to use activate my_env_name instead of source activate my_env_name to start your environment.
Which command to use is dependent on what terminal window you are using:
- Powershell requires activate my_env_name,
- Git Bash requires source activate my_env_name.
Often instructions naively state the the former is always used when on a Windows system.
Try source activate tensorflow.
On mac and in some windows environments source activate <env_name> is required. activate <env_name> is used instead in some Windows' environments.
For example, on Windows, if you're in a Git Bash terminal window, you must use source activate <env_name>, but if you're in a Powershell terminal window, then activate <env_name> would be required.
Linux/Mac will always (so far as I know) require source activate <env_name>
Run Anaconda Prompt as an administrator
I just have the same problem and by this way it's fixed.
My question is thoroughly based on this question. The big difference is I'm focusing on windows here. The answers/question provided there were for unix distributions.
I've ran Python 2.x for quite a while and have used pip with no problems.
Now I've installed python 3 but when I open the cmd prompt and pip install somemodule it tries to install it for python 2. How can I deal with this situation ?
Both Python's were installed with the Anaconda distribution so I believe both of them come with pip installed. Note: This info come from this question
EDIT:
Found this answer which addresses that issue.
But now when I try to run the command
pip3.5 install pymssql
or
pip-3.5 install pymssql
I get the error pip3.5 is an unknown command.
If I open cmd and type python I receive:
Python 3.5.1 Anaconda 4.0.0
so it shouldn't be a version problem
You will want to make sure you have the correct Anaconda environment activated, which it looks like you have in this case.
conda env list # Display the list of conda environments
In the Windows Command Prompt you should just need to use:
activate py35 # Or whatever your Python 3.5 environment is called. (Mine is root)
pip install pymssql
Instead of pip-3.5.
To install it in another environment (mine is called py27):
activate py27
pip install pymssql
I successfully used this command in both my Python 2.7 and 3.5 Anaconda environments.
To go back to your primary environment (root), just type activate without an environment name after it
