Metasploit does't detect added exploit from exploit-db

Question

I've added an exploit from www.exploit-db.com to /.msf4/modules/exploit/windows/remote/41987.py following the naming convention. I updated the database with the command updatedb and rebooted.

Metasploit does not detect the newly added exploit. However, if i add 41891.rb, it detects it no problem. Why does Metasploit not see the python files?

I had the same problem.

Metasploit has feature to import python modules but it cannot work with any random python script, that script needs a structure to be working in Metasploit.

You will get a detailed view in this answer. A very informative one.

Because metasploit is purely written in Ruby.

DO as follow to add python extension (if you havent done yet): - meterpreter > use python - try python_import to import your python code module

I wrote a little script a few months to fix import a custom module to metasploit. Here's the link https://github.com/donovandevs/fixs
It was impossible reload or update the msf exploits after import a custom module. And it gives me a huge random error related with the stack, but that wasn't possible.
