| Point to the files in the downloads folder
Open Python_installation_linux.txt Open packages.txt and show |
I have created Python_installation_linux.txt and packages.txt files for installation.
Python_installation_linux.txt file has the list of commands to install python 3.12.3. You may copy and paste these commands in the terminal instead of typing. Remember to Press the Enter key after each command in the terminal. packages.txt file contains the library names used in the Python for Automation series. |
| Press Ctrl, Alt and T keys. | Now let us open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl', Alt and T keys together. |
| >Type sudo apt update
Press Enter |
Now type sudo space apt space update and press Enter.
This command refreshes the local package index with the latest repository data. |
| >Type python3 --version
Press Enter. |
Next type python3 space hyphen hyphen version.
You can see the version of python in your system. |
| Highlight Python 3.12.3 | Here it is python 3.12.3 |
| Only narration
Highlight Python 3.12.3 |
The python version varies based on the Ubuntu Linux version.
We will create a virtual environment and install the python and required libraries. If your python version is 3.12 or higher proceed with the following steps: If not, move to the second half of this tutorial. |
| >Type sudo apt install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python3-dev | Type the command as shown.
This command installs additional packages and tools. |
| >Type sudo apt install -y python3-pip | Type the command as shown.
We install pip to manage Python packages and libraries for our projects. |
| >Type sudo apt install -y python3-venv
Then press Enter. |
Type the command as shown.
Virtual environments provide isolated Python project spaces on your server. |
| >Type python3.12 -m venv Automation
Then press Enter. |
Type python3 dot 12 space hyphen m space venv space Automation
You can create a new environment with the name Automation. |
| >Type source Automation/bin/activate
Then press Enter. |
To activate the environment, type the command as shown.
We can see the name “Automation” in the command prompt. |
| >Type sudo apt-get install espeak python3-tk default-jre | Type the command as shown to install few necessary software packages for our Automation tutorial. |
| >Type cd Downloads | Now, we need to install the libraries required for this python for Automation series.
I have already downloaded packages.txt in my Downloads folder. Go to the Downloads directory by typing cd space Downloads. |
| >Typepip3 install -r packages.txt | Now type pip3 space install space hyphen r space packages.txt
Through this command, we can install the necessary libraries. |
| Highlight the output | We can see that all our libraries are installed. |
| Only narration
>Type deactivate |
We can exit the virtual environment with the command : deactivate |
| Point point to the python version on the terminal. | If your python version is lower than 3.12, we will see how to install python 3.12.3 |
| Point to the command. | Type the command as shown
Hyphen y automatically answers "yes" to prompts in the terminal window. |
| Download python 3.12.3>cd /usr/src | Type “cd space forward slash usr forward slash src
This command navigates the directory to install Python from the source. |
| > sudo curl -O | Next we will type the command to install python3.12.3 as shown.
