Advanced Install
Start scripts webui.bat or webui.sh are provided to create and activate VENV and immediately start launcher.
No other work is performed in the shell scripts.
Actual launcher is started using python launch.py command.
If you start launcher manually without creating & activating VENV first, it will install packages system wide.
This may be desired when running SD.Next in a dedicated container where there is no benefits of running additional isolation provided by VEVN.
SD.Next by default uses venv to install all dependencies
Usage of venv is not required, but it is recommended to avoid library version conflicts with other applications
You can also pre-create venv to use specific settings, for example:
python -m venv venv --system-site-packages
This will instruct VENV to use system site packages where available and only install missing/incorrect packages inside VENV
SD.Next has built-in upgrade mechanism when using --upgrade command line flag, but its fully supported to run manual upgrades using git pull as well.
