I tried installing opencv-contrib-python but I'm unable to get it to work on docker. It says Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement opencv-contrib-python
I tried,
pip install opencv-contrib-python-headless
Then, I tired
https://github.com/cassiobotaro/docker-opencv-contrib/blob/master/Dockerfile
and I also tried,
FROM python:3.5-alpine
COPY . /app
WORKDIR /app
RUN apk add --no-cache ca-certificates
RUN apk add --no-cache git build-base musl-dev alpine-sdk cmake clang clang-dev make gcc g++ libc-dev linux-headers
RUN mkdir /tmp/opencv
WORKDIR /tmp/opencv
RUN wget -O opencv.zip https://github.com/opencv/opencv/archive/3.4.1.zip
RUN unzip opencv.zip
RUN wget -O opencv_contrib.zip https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib/archive/3.4.1.zip
RUN unzip opencv_contrib.zip
RUN mkdir /tmp/opencv/opencv-3.4.1/build
WORKDIR /tmp/opencv/opencv-3.4.1/build
RUN cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -D OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=/tmp/opencv/opencv_contrib-3.4.1/modules -D BUILD_DOCS=OFF BUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -D BUILD_TESTS=OFF -D BUILD_PERF_TESTS=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_java=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_python=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_python2=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_python3=OFF ..
RUN make -j4
RUN make install
RUN rm -rf /tmp/opencv
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt
CMD ["app.py"]
But I cannot get either one of it to work. PLease let me know how can I install the above in docker by just the requirements file?

My guess is that you're seeing the failure on the -alpine version because the opencv package is a binary distribution (it's not just Python code), and it probably hasn't been built for Alpine. Alpine uses a C library that is different from everything else (Alpine uses MUSL libc while just about everthing else uses Glibc); there is some possibility that the opencv codebase won't even build for MUSL. Or maybe it's just that nobody has gotten around to building a binary package. In either case, you're better off with one of the following options:
If I use the stock python:3.5 image (not the Alpine one) it Just Works:
$ docker run -it --rm python:3.5 bash

As we can see from a package query, that library is owned by the libglib2.0 package, which is apparently not installed by default in the -slim version of the Python image. We can fix that:
# apt-get update
# apt-get -y install libglib2.0
And now it runs as expected:

You could build your own image incorporating this fix using a
Dockerfile like:
FROM python:3.5-slim
RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install libglib2.0; apt-get clean
RUN pip install opencv-contrib-python-headless
Update
Regarding your comment: if you want a package to be available to code
running in your container then, yes, you have to install it. Where
else will it come from?
If opencv-contrib-python-headless is included in your
requirements.txt, then what have posted in the comments should work
just fine:
FROM python:3.5
COPY . /app
WORKDIR /app
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt
ENTRYPOINT ["python3"]
CMD ["app.py"]
If you requirements.txt does not include this (why not?), you would
need to explicitly install it:
FROM python:3.5
RUN pip install opencv-contrib-python-headless
COPY . /app
WORKDIR /app
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt
ENTRYPOINT ["python3"]
CMD ["app.py"]
I had the same issue. I was using python-slim. It occurs due to run time dependencies. Add the following code snippet in your DockerFile to install run time dependencies.
Install OpenCV's runtime dependencies
RUN apt-get update RUN apt-get -y install libglib2.0-0 RUN apt-get -y install libsm6 \ libxrender-dev \ libxext6
