| # Standalone - using Python virtual environment |
| Cheminformatics Microservice can also be deployed as a standalone application using the Python virtual environment. Here are the step by step instructions. |
|
|
| 1. Install Python: Install Python on your machine by following the instructions for your specific operating system. |
|
|
| 2. Open a terminal or command prompt. |
|
|
| 3. Navigate to the directory where your CM project codebase is located: Use `cd` to navigate to the project directory. |
|
|
| 5. Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended): Run the command `python -m venv env` to create a new virtual environment named "env" for your app. |
|
|
| 6. Activate the virtual environment (if created): Depending on your operating system, run the appropriate command to activate the virtual environment. For example, on Windows, run `.\env\Scripts\activate`, and on macOS/Linux, run `source env/bin/activate`. |
|
|
| 7. Install FastAPI and required dependencies: Run the command `pip install -r requirements.txt` to install FastAPI and the necessary dependencies. |
|
|
| 8. Run the FastAPI app: Execute the command `uvicorn main:app --reload` to start the CM app. |
|
|
| 9. Wait for the app to start: Uvicorn will start the app and display the server address (usually `http://localhost:8000`) in the terminal or command prompt. |
|
|
| 10. Access the FastAPI app: Open a web browser and navigate to the server address displayed in the terminal or command prompt. You should see your FastAPI app running. |
|
|
| That's it! |
