## Requirements
|
|
### Python 3 Interpreter
|
|
- This program is designed to work best on **Python 3.6.5** and this version of Python 3 is suggested. See if it is already installed, [here](#finding-the-correct-keyword-for-python).
|
|
- If not, download the matching release for your platform [here](https://www.python.org/downloads/) and install it. If you are a *Windows* user, selecting **Add Python 3 to PATH** option when installing the software is mandatory.
|
|
|
|
## Using terminal
|
|
### To open it...
|
|
- **on Windows**: Press **Shift+Right Click**, select **Open Powershell window here** or **Open Command Prompt window here**
|
|
|
|
- **on Linux**: Right-click in a folder and select **Open Terminal** or press **Ctrl+Alt+T**.
|
|
|
|
- **on MacOS**: Look for an app called **Terminal**.
|
|
|
|
### Navigating to the directory where script is downloaded
|
|
Go inside the folder where script.py is located. If you are not familiar with changing directories on command-prompt and terminal read *Changing Directories* in [this article](https://lifehacker.com/5633909/who-needs-a-mouse-learn-to-use-the-command-line-for-almost-anything)
|
|
|
|
## Finding the correct keyword for Python
|
|
Enter these lines to terminal window until it prints out the version you have downloaded and installed:
|
|
|
|
- `python --version`
|
|
- `python3 --version`
|
|
- `python3.7 --version`
|
|
- `python3.6 --version`
|
|
- `py --version`
|
|
- `py -3 --version`
|
|
- `py -3.6 --version`
|
|
- `py -3.7 --version`
|
|
|
|
Once it does, your keyword is without the `--version` part.
|
|
|
|
## Installing dependencies
|
|
Enter the line below to terminal window when you are in the directory where script.py is, use your keyword for Python:
|
|
```console
|
|
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
```
|
|
