I am looking for some direction for venv virtual environments.
I'm running Python 3.9
If I use virtual environments with venv, I believe by default they will use my system parameters.
If I read the docs correctly, once the environment is created, I need to pip install the extra packages.
Will the new venv look on my system for the packages first, or go download another copy every time?
If I wanted to use something like netmiko, would it need to download everything again each time I create a new venv?
Thanks for any advice.
Sorry if I couldn't find the topic already in the forums.
some of the places I found useful in searching were
https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html
