I can't install it

Could you check the python version? It should be python 3.x

pip --version
pip 18.1 from /home/martini/.pyenv/versions/3.7.1/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pip (python 3.7)

Maybe you have to call pip3 explicitely

[AlexanderSenf]

pip --version pip 18.1 from /home/asenf/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip (python 2.7)

Aha! Python 2.7. I will update and try again:

pip3 --version pip 8.1.1 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (python 3.5)

pip3 install git+https://github.com/EGA-archive/crypt4gh.git Collecting git+https://github.com/EGA-archive/crypt4gh.git Cloning https://github.com/EGA-archive/crypt4gh.git to /tmp/pip-0itbr44h-build Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/tmp/pip-0itbr44h-build/setup.py", line 23 f'{PROG} = crypt4gh.main:main' , ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I just can't get around this (it also happens on Ubuntu 14.05.5 LTS / Python 3.4.3) :

File "setup.py", line 23 f'{PROG} = crypt4gh.main:main' , ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[AlexanderSenf]

The issue may be that I am using Python 3.4 / 3.5. f-String only work with Python 3.6+

[AlexanderSenf]

Ok. I created an Ubuntu 18 VM.

I do actually need to type 'pip3'. And I had to 'pip3 install pynacl'.

Then I could install it without issue!

@AlexanderSenf install one of:

• https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/
• https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv
• https://pipenv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

with Python3.6

File "setup.py", line 23 f'{PROG} = crypt4gh.main:main' , ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

That error is related to F strings which were introduced in Python 3.6+

[AlexanderSenf]

Thank you ! :) This worked, on a brand new Ubuntu 16.04 LTS VM:

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common curl sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y python3.6 python3.6-venv

mkdir environments cd environments

virtualenv --python=python3.6 myvenv source myvenv/bin/activate

pip install pynacl pip install paramiko

pip install git+https://github.com/EGA-archive/crypt4gh.git

@AlexanderSenf good :+1: I made this comment https://github.com/EGA-archive/crypt4gh/issues/3#issuecomment-459001744 before seeing this: https://github.com/EGA-archive/crypt4gh/issues/3#issuecomment-458950892

@silverdaz maybe we should add such instructions to the installation setup, also these might be good for LocalEGA as well

[silverdaz]

Sure. That's on the "roadmap". Wanna give a hand?

PS: do leave LocalEGA out of this.

[silverdaz]

Closing this issue as it is not an issue anymore.
