pip install gives errors

Here is the terminal output

The problems resolve if you change your pyproject.toml to:

[build-system] requires = ["setuptools >= 61.0"] build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"

[project] name = "LightSailSim" version = "0.1.0" dependencies = [ "numpy", "pandas", "matplotlib", "scipy", ]

requires-python = ">=3.8" authors = [ {name = "Mark Kalfsbeek"}, ] maintainers = [ {name = "Mark Kalfsbeek"} ] description = "LightSailSim" readme = "README.md" keywords = ["keyword1", "keyword2"] # Add your desired keywords here classifiers = [ "Development Status :: 3 - Alpha", "Programming Language :: Python", "Intended Audience :: Kite Designers, Developers", ]

[project.urls] Repository = "https://github.com/Markk116/LightSailSim/tree/main"

However the code still does not run, problems with relative imports

Hey Jelle!

Thanks for raising the issue and providing a fix! I think the reason it still doesn't work is because I was still using relative imports for the interpolator files...oops. This should be fixed in the latest commit. Would you mind checking if it works?

Greets, Mark

• The pip install -e , cmd now runs succesfully
• I would suggest adding to the README that the developer should also create a venv before installing your package into
• Their is a typo in line python Simulations\Gao_et_al.py it should be python Simulations/Gao_et_al.py (backslash the other way)
• Once I run the correct version of that, I still get import errors

(venv) [...@fedora LightSailSim]$ python Simulations/Gao_et_al.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

Managed to reproduce the issue via wsl. Issue seemed to disappear after I renamed 'Setup.py' to 'setup.py' and reinstalled the package. Please let me know if this resolved the issue for you too.
