I'm not sure if it will help in your particular case, but did you know
you can use pip to install modules for Blender's own Python? It's
currently a little broken due to inaction on my part, but there is a
workaround. See:
http://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/14489/how-to-use-the-pip-library-in-blender
https://developer.blender.org/D1805
If you do it this way, you only need to write a script (in Python or
whatever you like) that runs pip to fetch the packages you need. I use
this myself to install Python packages for Blender in a Docker
container.
Cheers,
Alex
