Error Building gridencoder Can't Open Input file

[troybuckley]

In trying to install the gridencoder with the following command: pip install ./gridencoder

I get the follower error(s):

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for gridencoder

Failed to build gridencoder
ERROR: Could not build wheels for gridencoder, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

The files do NOT exist in the location it's looking for them...so is something not getting setup correctly before this part?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
