Using requirements.txt for installing modules in Python | Business Statistics

Example of using a requirements file in Python to load required packages

I show how to use the pip install command with a requirements file in SageMaker.

I also showed you how to use the -q flag to suppress the output of the pip install command. This is useful if you don't want to see the output of the command every time you run it.

You can share the requirements file with other people so that they can install the same modules in their own notebook environments.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind:

- The pip install command will install the most current version of the modules that you list in the requirements file.
- You can specify the version of a module that you want to install by adding the version number to the requirements file.
- The pip freeze command will list all of the modules that are installed in the notebook environment, including the version numbers.

I hope this summary was helpful.
