Flask - Deployment

You wrote this GitHub Actions step to install dependencies:

- name: Install dependencies
  run: pip install requirements.txt

Why does this step fail in your Flask CI/CD pipeline?

ABecause pip install cannot run in GitHub Actions

BBecause requirements.txt file is missing

CBecause the command should be 'pip install -r requirements.txt'

DBecause Python version is not specified

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify the pip install syntax error
The command 'pip install requirements.txt' tries to install a package named 'requirements.txt' instead of reading the file.
Step 2: Correct the command syntax
The correct command to install from a requirements file is 'pip install -r requirements.txt'. This flag tells pip to read the file.
Final Answer:
Because the command should be 'pip install -r requirements.txt' -> Option C
Quick Check:
Use '-r' flag to install from file = A [OK]

Quick Trick: Use 'pip install -r requirements.txt' to install dependencies [OK]
