In general when I am working in python I make sure and use a
requirements.txt file.   Most modern IDEs will recognize this and install
the packages as I have requested in the requirements.txt.   You can also
use pip to read the requirements.txt file on the command line and install
them for you also.   I am fairly sure that is what the IDEs are doing under
the covers.   As far as trying to track what the modules I am using are
using inside them ... I try not to worry about that.   It really is an
exponential path that really doesn't matter if you organize what you are
using in your own project.   Here is a quick link on requirements.txt.
 Maybe this will help.
