Say I want to install a python library called opencv when I install my custom module in a new system, how can I do this automatically?

Basically I want to run


pip install opencv-python == 2.4.9

automatically when I install my module in a system not having opencv

Hi Rob,

You can define below key,value pair in __manifest__.py file:

'external_dependencies': {
   'python': ['opencv-python'],
}

This only checks whether the dependency is installed or not and prevents app from installing. It does not automatically install the dependency.
