Answered

When a transitive dependency is optional, how do we make sure the task detects it?

In my case, I have a task that reads excel file using pandas which needs xlrd . I have xlrd in requirements.txt but clearml doesn’t pick it up as requirement for the task. Think this is because it looks at imports. Adding import xlrd will fix it, but is there a better way I am missing?

Hi TrickySheep9 ,

ClearML does analyze your packages, but you always can add any package you like with Task.add_requirements('xlrd', '') or if its a package that you want the ClearML agent to install always (not per task), you can add it to the agent’s configuration file https://github.com/allegroai/clearml-agent/blob/master/docs/clearml.conf#L82

Can this do the trick?
