All the "do_{something}" steps run bash commands, which should be able to run python scripts.

You probably want to run it in do_install.

Alternatively you can run these steps in python instead of bash by writing python before the name of the steps. For example:

python do_install{

I didn't test any of this personally, but I saw this done in different recipe files(the opencv recipe for example)
