EGG file installation - Python package

gaurmihir24

Hi All,

I have a python package in form of an .egg file and wanted to understand the steps to use it as a package in DSS.

Thank you for your support

Python .egg files are deprecated and are replaced by Wheel format. Since DSS uses pip which does not support installing egg format you won't be able to add egg packages directly from DSS.

You should be able to convert your .egg file to wheel: https://wheel.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/wheel_convert.html

Once converted you should be to use pip to install.
