Before developing an operator, ensure that the following dependencies have been installed in the Python environment where MindStudio runs:

If you run the following command as a non-root user, add --user to the end of the installation command, for example, pip3 install xlrd==1.2.0 --user.

**Table 1** Python dependencies required for MindStudio operator development

gnureadline	-	TIK development	pip3 install gnureadline
