Hi Tõnis,
Thanks for the info.
I know the pip way to install new packages on native Python. But GeoServer does
not seem to use the native Python on the OS but Jython in the WEB-INF/lib. I
tried to copy the installed package to "{GEOSERVER_DATA}/scripts/lib/py/" and
restarted GeoServer. I imported the package in the Python script and copied the
file to "{GEOSERVER_DATA}\scripts\apps\hello\main.py". When I called the app
url via HTTP as instructed in the documentation, it complained about "unable to
find the module xxx".
Hope someone could give any clue about it.
Thanks.
Cheers,Alex

Hey Alex,
You can use e.g pip https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/ but I guess any
Python package manager will do. With pip it would be smth like:
pip install packagename -t /the/path/you/want
Maybe there's a way through simply setting environment variables
aswell to use your existing modules. But not really sure, I don't know
enough about jython/java for that matter.
All the best,
Tõnis
