Error installing with `meltano add` on Windows with Python 3.9.7 #24

Open seajhawk opened 2 years ago

Originally, I was using Python 3.10 and got the following error after running meltano add extractor tap-rest-api-msdk:

 >  meltano add extractor tap-rest-api-msdk

I installed Python 3.9.7, then created and activated a virtual environment using 3.9.7. When I ran the meltano add command again, I got the same error.

Is there something else I should be doing?

@seajhawk thanks for using this tap! To be honest, I've never tried adding the tap using meltano add and this error is very odd given your version of python is clearly within the requirements. I'll investigate further and see if I can replicate and fix the issue.

I ended up resolving this issue this morning with some help from the Meltano community

The problem was Meltano was installed with Python 3.10 and that is the version it was using to install the tap. I fixed it by pipx uninstall meltano then using the --python argument for pipx and specifying a python 3.9.7 exe on my machine to re-install:

pipx install meltano --python C:\Users\chris\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\python.exe

I'm working on a PR for the Meltano getting-started doc to help others in the future.
