Installing a Python environment

Installing a Python virtual environment is a great way to seperate your workspaces. If you're struggling to get Ghost running without a virtual environment you most likely have a library installed that is confusing Ghost. Creating a virtual environment will help combat this.

1. Create a virtual environment

python3 -m venv env

2. Activate the virtual environment (⬆️ Linux/Mac | ⬇️ Windows)

source env/bin/activate

.\env\bin\activate

3. Install the required libraries

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Still not working!!!

If you're still struggling, you most likely already have the wrong discord library installed.
Try running the following commands.

pip uninstall discord.py discord.py-self discord py-cord
pip install discord.py-self==2.0.0
