Running export_dashboards.py in environment

If you are running the python script for the first time, you need to create the environment by running the following commands in the beats/dev-tools directory:

virtualenv env
. env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

This creates the environment that contains all the python packages required to run the export_dashboards.py script. Thus, for the next runs you just need to enable the environment:

. env/bin/activate
