General discussion • Re: venv is not activating by .sh file

It's only 2 months I am working with raspberry pi.
I am Trying to run my python file at startup, library and modules are installed in venv.

My code is in home/admin/Downloads/code_dump
and venv is in the same path home/admin/Downloads/code_dump

So far I have tried this

created a launch.sh file on Desktop
launch.sh ->

SHELL=venv/bin/bash
cd ../Downloads/code_dump && . venv/bin/activate && python Suraksha.py

Getting error mediapipe not found, they are installed in virtual if I run venv manually then I is working fine.

My main aim is to run this python file on startup.

1. Call the ptyhon binary that's in the venv's bin directory and let python handle the venv stuff for you:

   Code:

   venv/bin/python Suraksha.py

2. Is it "venv" or ".venv"? I can't tell if "&& . venv/bin/activate" is a transcription error or exactly what you intend. If it is a transcription error it needs to be "&& source .venv/bin/activate" or the venv won't be activated in the next command(s).
3. Stop setting $SHELL. I've never explictly done so and I'm not sure that it is required.
