Install Python package before running NodeJS application on Elastic Beanstalk

I have a NodeJS application I'm running successfully on Elastic Beanstalk. But for 1 particular script I need to execute a command which uses the Couchapp Python library, like so:

exec( 'couchapp push somefile someurl' );

I want to install this requirement before staring the server with pip, potentially even in a virtualenv in which the NodeJS application starts as well. What's the best way of doing this, since I'm running a NodeJS EB environment?

You should be able to use the packages directive in an Elastic Beanstalk configuration file. Full documentation can be found here but I believe it'd look something like this:

.ebextensions/01-install-couchapp.config

packages:
  python:
    couchapp: []
