Create a second connector proxy for python libraries #652

Open harmeet-status opened 10 months ago

There will be many python libraries that we may want to use with process model, e.g. random password generator, OCR library etc.

As each connector is an independent project, you can create whatever dependencies you need. We don't currently support multiple connector proxys, and that would be a valuable ticket - as there is some risk of conflicting libraries as we add a large number connectors.

Moving to low priority, as the specific issues raised here are no longer a problem.

Yeah, there is no need to have a second connector proxy and there is nothing preventing the addition of new libraries to the existing connector.

@MarD0607 wants to push a OCR library to the connector-proxy repo

Yes, actually create a new connector for a python library, just like we have the smtp connector

burnettk commented 2 months ago

@burnettk I have only one problem:
