conda needs a environment.yaml file to determine the packages needed

python3 -m venv .venv
source myvenv/bin/activate
which python
pip install -r /Users/requirements.txt
pip3 uninstall -r requirements.txt -y

The only solution I found was to delete theĀ venvĀ and recreate it. I followed these steps but Iā€™ll provide a brief summary for Windows:

  1. Activate your virtualenv. Go to the parent folder where your Virtual Environment is located and runĀ venv\scripts\activate. Keep in mind that the first name ā€œvenvā€ can vary.
  2. Create a requirements.txt file.Ā pip freeze requirements.txt
  3. deactivateĀ to exit the venv
  4. rm venvĀ to delete the venv
  5. py -m venv venvĀ to create a new one
  6. pip install -r requirements.txtĀ to install the requirements.

to make sure install all the packages in requirements.txt

cat requirements.txt | sed -e '/^\s*#.*$/d' -e '/^\s*$/d' | xargs -n 1 python -m pip install
