For me best way work as below.

Create start-my-py-software.sh and pest below code

#!/bin/bash
source "/home/snippetbucket.com/source/AIML-Server-CloudPlatform/bin/activate"
python --version
python /home/snippetbucket.com/source/AIML-Server-CloudPlatform/main.py

Give file permission to run like below.

chmod +x start-my-py-software.sh

Now run like below

.start-my-py-software.sh

and that's it, start my python based server or any other code.

ubuntu #18.0
