I need to run ansible in target hosts with a custom python distribution. Currently I uploaded this python distribution manually and configured `ansible_python_interpreter` ([Interpreter Discovery — Ansible Community Documentation](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/interpreter_discovery.html)) to that specific path.

However, I wonder is there a way to automate this upload process using ansible?

Python distribution needs to be uploaded similar to a module code in a temp directory and then used to run other modules.

Hi and welcome to the forum!  
You can use the [ansible.builtin.raw](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/raw_module.html) module to install Python on a system without Python installed by default.
