Hi @jenniferlu717! :wave:
pytaxonkit should be fairly straightforward to install without Conda. It's all contained in a single module (file) that can either be placed in the environment (lib/python3.x/site-packages/
) or bundled with your software.
I can install taxonkit using pip
Really? taxonkit is implemented in Go, not Python, so I'd be surprised if it can be installed with pip.
Let me know if I can answer any specific questions with installation or integration.
Thanks for the quick response I am trying to include pytaxonkit in my software but it seems to have an issue here:
import pytaxonkit
File "/home/ec2-user/MYPACKAGE/src/pytaxonkit.py", line 55, in <module>
from _version import get_versions
ImportError: cannot import name 'get_versions' from '_version' (/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/_version.py)
Accept my apologies, it looks like my comments above weren't accurate.
Out of the box, pytaxonkit uses versioneer for managing software version numbers with git. So using pytaxonkit will require either making a small change to pytaxonkit.py
or including the _version.py
script alongside pytaxonkit.py
.
You should be able to make a simple edit to pytaxonkit.py
to hard-code the version number and eliminate the dependency on versioneer.

You can download the latest version tarball from github and run pip install pytaxonkit-0.9.tar.gz
. Alternatively, you should be able to streamline that into a single step with
pip install git+https://github.com/bioforensics/pytaxonkit.git@0.9
This latter option installs pytaxonkit.py
and _version.py
to your Python environment. Because PyTaxonKit is a single module and not a fully-fledged package, I should probably rename _version.py
to something like pytaxonkit_version.py
. But that shouldn't be a concern for you.
Hello, I am trying to see if I can install this software without using conda as I'm trying to develop a toolset that has the option of installing with/without conda.
I can install taxonkit using pip but it doesnt seem that pip install works with this
