Install Untangle package on frappe bench

Hello Everyone,
I want to install python package untangle on frappe bench.This package is used to parse xml files/data.

When i use sudo pip install untangle, it gets installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages. However, Frappe-Bench uses the pip from ~/frappe-bench/env/bin .

I am completely new to Frappe world. Please help me installing untangle so that i can use it in my python code on frappe framework.

Hi @bishnu_bhatta
You simply need to activate the virtualenv at ~/frappe-bench/env/bin
