Custom Python Library Setup for Pulse-IT/Automate-IT

Configuration:​

Copy the .whl File:​

Store the ‘.whl’ file in a local folder on the host system.

Map the Folder Using a Volume:​

Modify the ‘compose-local.yaml’ file to include the volume mapping: volumes:

  • /home/user/custom-libraries:/app/custom-libraries

Update the Environment Configuration:​

Add the local path to the worker local.env file: CUSTOM_LIBRARIES_DIR = /app/custom-libraries

If applied to a Windows worker: Add the local path in the [paths] section of the agent.ini file [paths] CUSTOM_LIBRARIES_DIR = path to custom virtualenv site-packages folder

Restart the worker:​

Restart the worker to apply the changes.

Workflow Player Service Behavior:​

On startup, the workflow_player service will check the ‘/app/custom-libraries’ folder. The service will unzip the .whl file into the folder ‘app/custom-libraries/.cache/’. Each launched workflow will add the contents of the ‘.cache’ folder to ‘sys.path’ to ensure package accessibility.
