Hey all, I'm trying to run a custom transformer, it works well via CLI but cannot make it work via the Ingestion GUI, i get
ModuleNotFoundError
So i would like to know how can i install packages in the env this ingestion is running in.

You will need to install them in datahub-actions container

thanks for a fast reply! indeed i installed the package in my datahub-actions container, however the execution still yields the same error. Anything special need to be added to the ingestion spec, or the datahub-actions is always used to run GUI ingestion?

Hi @glamorous-library-1322 unfortunately the UI-based ingestion doesn't have all the flexibility of the cli-based ingestion. Specifically, we don't have the ability for you to "bring your own code" yet.
This is something we are thinking about though, so we will probably come up with some creative solves for this soon, but in the meantime, you will have to use the cli-based ingestion if you need to customize the ingestion via transformers.

@mammoth-bear-12532 thanks for taking time to reply to me 🙂 indeed it would be cool if it was possible to run custom things in UI but i get it is not a priority, i will use the client for now observe town hall for new features.
