You can define your dependencies in a requirements.txt file, then install them with Docker:

RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

The best way to handle the dependencies is using requirements.txt

Try this dockerfile

FROM python:3.8-slim-buster
COPY . /work
WORKDIR /work
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
