error in OctoPrint-SpoolManager setup command: 'install_requires' must be a string or list of strings containing valid project/version requirement specifiers; Expected end or semicolon (after version specifier)

[reini-1]

I cannot install/update the plugin, because it shows the error below. Is there a workaround/fix available? Is the plugin still in development or is it deprecated/abandoned?

Thanks in advance.

In setup.py, "pillow>=6.2.0<7.0.0" needs a comma, like "pillow>=6.2.0,<7.0.0".

In some environments setuptools would fallback to the setup.py method when it couldn't build the wheel because of this, but on others (notably when I'd use paukstelis' octoprint_install or octoprint_deploy scripts) it would just fail. Haven't been figure out what's different but it doesn't matter, this should be fixed.

I'll do a PR for this.

Nevermind, there's already an ignored PR for the exact same change. #327

To fix this i followed the instructions on #327 In your Octo print plugin manager use the following URL to grab a bugfix version of the spool manager plugin. you may have to scroll down in the "Get more plugins" dialog to be able to manually enter the URL. https://github.com/HTXF-g/OctoPrint-SpoolManager/archive/refs/heads/bugfix.zip
