Install Python Libraries

💡

You do not need to stop EnvisionSCADA to install additional libraries.

For example, if we wish to install fpdf (creating PDF reports).

First, let's upgrade PIP with the following command:

python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip

Next, let's install the library with the following command:

pip install fpdf

Make sure that pip installs the package in the correct repository used by EnvisionSCADA:

C:\Program Files\Python311\Lib\site-packages

If you want to know where it installed the package, you can use the following command:

python -m site --user-site

You may always copy the file to the right directory manually.

After the files are in the right place, you can immediately use the new library, without needing to restart EnvisionSCADA.
