Deploying

The Open edX Filters component is a Python library which doesn't need independent deployment. Therefore, its setup is reasonably straightforward. First, it needs to be added to your service requirements, and then it will be installed alongside requirements of the service.

If the service you intend to use is either the LMS or CMS, then the library is installed alongside their requirements since the Nutmeg release.
