Installed Python Packages are not found

Hello,

I'm currently just trying out semaphore to get a GUI for Ansible, to create kind of a self service portal. Right now I'm facing a problem, and I can't quite grasp where the problem is.

I've created a dockerfile to install the needed Python Packages and Ansible Collections. I'm than using the created image in my docker-compose.yml. That's all working. But as soon as I start to run a playbook, I get an error that a package couldn't be loaded. In this case it was requests. But I've installed it into the container. So I'm not sure why it can't be loaded.

Best regards, HerrFrodo

Did you install the package globally (as root) or as the semaphore user? Have you installed those dependencies via pip?

[HerrFrodo]

I've installed the packages as the sempahore user with pip.

I also tried modifying the path in my Dockerfile, but that also didn't help

ENV PATH="${PATH}:/home/semaphore/.local/bin"

I'm not sure if this works. Would you be able to share the dockerfile you based your container on? Just for proof reading. I've done similar to solve some depenendency and tooling issues I had in my setup.

You can install packages to container via Ansible :)

Of course, there you go.

@fiftin - Could you please provide an example for how this is done for vanilla semaphoreui/semaphore:latest image? I assume the playbook must target localhost (the container) and first run apk add py3-pip but this requires sudo and this doesn't appear to be installed in the container?

Please use the latest container image (currently develop tag) where you can install any pypi dependency by mounting a requirements.txt to /etc/semaphore.
