Manual Render settings

If you create a Web Service instead of a Blueprint:

Build command:
pip install -r requirements.txt

Start command:
uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port $PORT

Local run

python -m venv .venv

Windows:

.venv\Scripts\activate

Linux/macOS:

source .venv/bin/activate

Then:

pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
