## Set up virtual environnement

At the root of your repository, first set up a python virtual environnement.

`$ python -m venv .venv`

This will be useful to keep track of the dependencies

[source](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html)

Activate it 
`$ source .venv/bin/activate`

now you should see `(.venv) ~/Code/fastapi-corbia-telegram$ ` 

`pip install --upgrade pip`

`(.venv) ~/Code/fastapi-corbia-telegram$ pip install fastapi[all] uvicorn`

To save the dependency list, you can run the pip freeze command and send the output to a requirement.txt

`(.venv) ~/Code/fastapi-corbia-telegram$ pip freeze > requirements.txt`

Later on, when you deploy your application on a server, you will be able to run

`(.venv) pip install -r requirements.txt`
