splunk custom app using virtual environment - deploying the app

[net1993]

Hello
I have difficult times to understand how to deploy an app which needs virtual environment and deploy the app in distributed environment?

Currently I have installed the app on the Heavy Forwarder manually but this is client of DS so this will not work because I think if I run ./splunk reload deploy-server then the app will disappear from HF. So how can I handle to place the app to DS and then deploy the app to HF when the app requires a Virtual environment which currently is installed in bin folder of the app?

Thank you in advance

Which app are you trying to install?
Restarting the DS has no effect on deployed apps.

Oh, sorry.
The app is a custom app so it's not in splunkbase.
When I said restart DS, i ment ./splunk reload deploy-server
