Running my django project on my LineageOS (Android) with Termux

Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment application that works directly with no rooting or setup required. A minimal base system is installed automatically, additional packages are available using the APT package manager.

Steps

1. Get Termux from https://termux.com/.

2. Install Termux and install the necessary packages:

$ pkg update
$ pkg install libjpeg-turbo clang ndk-root libcrypt zlib python git

1. Clone my project at Gitlab on your home directory

$ cd ~
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/

1. Create virtualenv and Install my project dependencies

$ python -m venv myenv
$ source myenv/bin/activate
(myenv) $ export LDFLAGS='-L/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/'
(myenv) $ export CFLAGS='-I/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/include/'
(myenv) $ python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Sample output:
