Creating a quantrocket.satellite.pip.txt and running:
from quantrocket.satellite import execute_command
execute_command('/opt/quantrocket/bin/install-packages')
Is currently not installing packages for me. Any ideas?
Does the command return a success message? Stream the detailed logs before running the command; you should see the packages getting installed, or else an error message.
Also, note that this will only install the packages in the satellite container, not in any other containers.
I do get a success message.
What's needed to make the packages available for Moonshot strategies?
Also - the package works from console + notebooks, just not from a Moonshot strategy file.
The import fails with quantrocket_flightlog_1|2019-04-01 18:03:11 quantrocket.moonshot: ERROR Unable to import /codeload/moonshot/<filename>.py due to error: No module named <module>
The current approach is to open a shell inside the Moonshot container and install the packages from there: Usage Guide
Don't forget to restart the Moonshot container afterwards so it sees the changes. For now you'll have to repeat these steps after re-creating the container (e.g. software updates).
I can't explain why the jupyter container would also have the package you installed on the satellite container.
Gotcha - I thought it was propagated everywhere 
Works now.
