That is not a good idea. Yes, you can install bundles from the Felix console but bundles installations in AEM ideally should be managed by the Sling OSGi Installer which can scan the JCR repository for bundles.

As said in the other response, you should put your bundle in a folder named "install" below the /apps folder.

My recommendation would be to use the Maven Content Package Plugin that is used to generate AEM comments to embedd your bundle in your AEM package:

    <build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>com.day.jcr.vault</groupId>
            <artifactId>content-package-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <configuration>
                <failOnMissingEmbed>true</failOnMissingEmbed>
                <filterSource>src/main/META-INF/vault/filter.xml</filterSource>
                <filters combine.self="override" />
                <embeddeds>
                    <embedded>
                        <groupId>org.apache.sling</groupId>
                        <artifactId>org.apache.sling.models.validation-impl</artifactId>
                        <target>/apps/example/install</target>
                    </embedded>
                </embeddeds>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

Also, dont forget to add /apps/example/install to your filter.xml.

You can put your lib into src/main/jcr_root/apps/your_app/libs/install folder(path depends on your project structure). Now it will be installed to AEM using maven.

To import necessary classes use provided scope, we have the following configuration for Jedis lib:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.servicemix.bundles</groupId>
    <artifactId>org.apache.servicemix.bundles.jedis</artifactId>
    <version>2.7.3_1</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
