Hello,

I’m using a code node to convert text into a PDF using Python (FPDF), but how can I install the required package for the code node to use? The instructions I’ve seen here seem to be for Docker.

Thank you.

  • Database (default: SQLite): default
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): default

Hey @KeemOnN8N

With our Python support we are restricted to the packages that Pyodide supports, as you are using npm though you could create your script outside of n8n and install the packages and modules then use the execute command node and run the Python command and script from there.
