# Using Virtual Environments
|
|
|
|
Create isolated Python environments using `venv`.
|
|
|
|
## Venv Steps
|
|
|
|
1. **Create a Virtual Environment:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 -m venv venv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Activate the Virtual Environment:**
|
|
|
|
- On Linux/macOS:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
source venv/bin/activate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- On Windows:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
venv\Scripts\activate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Install Open WebUI:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install open-webui
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. **Start the Server:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
open-webui serve
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::tip 'open-webui: command not found'?
|
|
If your terminal says the command doesn't exist:
|
|
1. Ensure your virtual environment is **activated** (Step 2).
|
|
2. If you still get an error, try running it via Python directly: `python -m open_webui serve`
|
|
3. If you want to store your data in a specific place, use: `DATA_DIR=./data open-webui serve`
