Installation with python setup.py install does not work (without pip and no internet access) #64

Closed abourakba closed 6 years ago

abourakba commented 6 years ago

Description

I don't have acces to an internet connection. I do not use pip either.

When I tried to run the nipyapi won't install : python setup.py install

Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 45, in exclude=['.tests', '.tests.', 'tests.', 'tests'] TypeError: find_packages() got an unexpected keyword argument 'include'

Is there a way I can install without pip ?

What I Did

python setup.py install

Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 45, in exclude=['.tests', '.tests.', 'tests.', 'tests'] TypeError: find_packages() got an unexpected keyword argument 'include'

Hi @abourakba I will try to test around this in the next couple of days but the package is designed to dynamically resolve dependencies using Pip, and I haven't looked at test an offline install with it - this is not to say that it cannot be done, I simply haven't tried it beyond creating a .whl and running it in a tempenv.

If you want to take a run at it yourself, preparing a python package for offline install is a fairly standard process and there are many good answers for it around the internet, like this one

I'll still take a look at it and see if this is a bug in Py2.7.5, but please be aware that I'm about to go on summer holiday with my family so it might be a few days until I have some time free.

Hello @Chaffelson , As I am not in an urge. I switched from task to task. Using nipyapi is not a improvement I want to propose and I work on Idle times. I will have a look at the link. Have a nice an cool Holydays ;) Best Regards Abdou

Upon examining this I think it is outside of the scope of the project to provide a method to install without internet access. We think it is reasonable to expect a user to be able to create an egg themselves which matches their environment requirements.
