This repo defines the Python virtual environment for the Udacity Artificial Intelligence Nanodegree program.

The virtual environment uses Python3.10 venv with dependency management handled via poetry.

Steps to recreate the environment locally:

$ git clone -o origin [email protected]:F18/ai-nanodegree-venv.git
$ ./clone_venv.sh

The clone_venv.sh will create the venv folder locally by cloning the exact package versions defined in the poetry.lock file. This should mimic the environment exactly as it was intended to be used.

If, however, you want to rebuild the poetry environment from scratch, then you can execute the initialize_poetry.sh script, which will first delete the poetry.lock file and then install the dependencies, before creating a new poetry.lock file:

$ git clone -o origin [email protected]:F18/ai-nanodegree-venv.git
$ ./initialize_poetry.sh

In either scenario, you may wish to update your packages to their latest versions. To do so, use the following command:

$ poetry update

This will automatically keep the pyproject.toml configuration file and the poetry.lock file in sync.
