Trying to install parasail without internet #44

Closed cytham closed 4 years ago

cytham commented 4 years ago

Hi,

I have been struggling to install parasail from the tar file as my server can't access the internet and hence cannot do pip install. I untar the file and do python setup.py install and got 

running install
parasail/libparasail.so not found, attempting to build
Downloading latest parasail master

And it tried to download the parasail master but couldn't due to no internet. Why is it that your package is doing this even when I already downloaded it from the master branch?

Please advise.

Thanks

cytham

Just pushed a new release to address this issue. Please try it out and let me know how it works for you.

Set the env var PARASAIL_SKIP_BUILD to avoid downloading and building the C library. The library loading at runtime will search in the package location first (original behavior, but the library will no longer exist), followed by a direct ctypes.CDLL(libname) that should search system locations, followed by searching paths in environment including PARASAIL_LIBPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, and PATH.

Set PARASAIL_VERBOSE=1 env var to see the progress of the library searching.
