Installation with one or more forked projects

git clone the repositories from there original git location or from a fork.
Do not 'sudo python3 install.py' on any of them.

After cloning, perform: Setup: System Python is externally-managed (PEP 668), so I created a venv with system-site-package inheritance (needed for hardware libs like RPi.GPIO, spidev, picamera2):

>_ bash
python3 -m venv --system-site-packages /home/pds/.venv

Editable installs — links directly to your source folders, so edits take effect immediately without reinstalling:

bash

>_ bash
/home/pds/.venv/bin/pip install -e /home/pds/robot-hat -e /home/pds/pidog -e /home/pds/vilib

Missing dependencies resolved:

python3-pyaudio (apt) — for robot_hat.music python3-opencv (apt) — for vilib, matches existing libopencv410 system libs flask (pip, in-venv) — for vilib's web streaming server Verified: import pidog, robot_hat, vilib now resolves to init.py, init.py, init.py respectively.

Python environment on raspberry PI

In a terminal type 'source .venv/bin/activate' otherwise you will receive a 'no permission' error message.
