Jina is an open-source search framework that makes it easy to build applications for searching large amounts of data. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Jina on POP! OS latest.
Before starting, make sure you have the following:
To avoid dependency conflicts with other python packages installed on your system, it is recommended to create a Python virtual environment for Jina. You can create a new virtual environment with the following command:
python3 -m venv jina-env
This command will create a new directory jina-env
containing a new Python virtual environment.
To activate the virtual environment, execute the following command:
source jina-env/bin/activate
This command will activate the virtual environment, and the command prompt will change to reflect that you are now working inside the virtual environment.
Install Jina using pip package manager with the following command:
pip install jina
This command will download and install all the necessary files and dependencies required to run Jina.
To verify that Jina is installed correctly, execute jina hello
command:
jina hello
This command should output a message like hello from Jina 2.0.3
.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Jina on POP! OS latest. Now you can start building your search applications using Jina.
Remember to always activate your virtual environment before working with Jina. To deactivate the virtual environment, execute the following command:
deactivate
Happy coding!
