No such File or directory "optimize-images"

Question

I am using optimize-images (PyPi) library for optimizing images in a folder. (which is generated dynamically for every users). (Django Project)

I have installed optimize-images using pip.

Since, its a long running task i am using celery to first import the images to a directory and then running a command (optimize-images) on that directory for compressing all images.

    os.chdir(r'/home/django/image-io/accounts/'+dynamic_user+'/optimized/')
    cwd = os.getcwd()
    print("CURENT WORKING DIRECTORY")
    print(cwd)
    p=subprocess.Popen([r"optimize-images", cwd])
    p.wait()

where ,

dynamic_user is a user_name (string)

optimized/ is the directory where all images are stored.

I am not able to understand , why it says this error

"No such file or directory: 'optimize-images'"

Since, optimize-images is a command line utility and not a folder/file.

Any help would be highly appreaciated.
