Describe the bug

Error when I tried to install it via pip

To reproduce

Command: pip install 'signal-export[sql]'

Error: ERROR: Invalid requirement: "'signal-export[sql]'"

carderne commented 8 months ago

Oh this must be a Windows thing... Try:

pip install signal-export[sql]

I would anyway recomend you don't try to install with the sql option, as it's really not easy/possible to get it working on Windows. Rather just do pip install signal-export and use it that way.

I'm closing this issue but please re-open it if there's anything else to add.
