Installation of additional tools for my django applications

1

In my python django application I’m using weasyprint to convert html to pdf, but it needs GTK3 to be installed in my windows 10 system. It runs perfectly after I installed GTK3. Now I need to deploy on render, I’m having doubts that if it will work. My guess is it won’t. What can I do here to make it work?. Note : GTK3 can only be installed with a setup file (.exe). I was not able to add it to requirements.txt. Is there any way?

You might have luck standing up your application with Docker instead, installing dependencies as needed for a Linux distribution as Render services run on Linux.

You can view the documentation on installing GTK on Linux.
