Using a Custom Virtual Environment

Use your own virtual environment.

By default, PyDeployment creates a virtual environment and installs PyInstaller along with any requirements specified by the requirements file. It is possible to instead specify your own virtual environment created by the venv module. In this case, the requirements file will be ignored. To do so, provide the path to VENV in the environment file or --venv on the command line.

Be sure that PyInstaller and any dependencies are installed in the virtual environment that you specify.
