Installing required libraries to Jupyter Notebook labs

If you need additional Python packages to be installed in your lab, create a requirements.txt file and list in this file all the required libraries.

There are two ways for learners to install these additional packages:

• Using the pip tool
• Using the Install requirements option in the lab interface

Installing additional packages using pip

To install a library, the learner needs to enter the following command in a cell in the .ipynb file:

[Copy Code](javascript:void(0)) Python
!pip install <library_name>

Installing additional packages using Install requirements

To install all the libraries from the requirements.txt file, the learner can use the Install requirements option.
