gym with windows and javascript #1211

Closed javismiles closed 5 years ago

javismiles commented 6 years ago

good day, I installed the gym on windows with Ubuntu and python + Xming server, and all works well. But then I tried to use it with javascript by following these instructions:

https://xaviergeerinck.com/running-openai-gym-on-windows-and-js

but it fails with the following issues:

a) all goes well until this command: "sudo pip install -e '.[all]' which returns "Directory '.' is not installable. File 'setup.py' not found."

b) the other issue I found is that I can install nodejs no probs, but not npm, installing npm on ubuntu-windows with : sudo apt-get install npm, after having installed nodejs (which doesnt install npm alongside it, curious), returns:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies: npm : Depends: nodejs but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-abbrev (>= 1.0.4) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-ansi (>= 0.3.0-2) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-ansi-color-table but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-archy but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-block-stream but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-fstream (>= 0.1.22) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-fstream-ignore but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-github-url-from-git but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-glob (>= 3.1.21) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-graceful-fs (>= 2.0.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-inherits but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-ini (>= 1.1.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-lockfile but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-lru-cache (>= 2.3.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-minimatch (>= 0.2.11) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-mkdirp (>= 0.3.3) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-gyp (>= 0.10.9) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-nopt (>= 3.0.1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-npmlog but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-once but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-osenv but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-read but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-read-package-json (>= 1.1.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-request (>= 2.25.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-retry but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-rimraf (>= 2.2.2) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-semver (>= 2.1.0) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-sha but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-slide but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-tar (>= 0.1.18) but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-underscore but it is not going to be installed Depends: node-which but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

and this point I tried many things without success, any advice much appreciated, as I say it all works well with python-ubuntu-windows, but it would be interesting to make it work with javascript

I'm afraid we don't officially support windows at this time, nor is gym-http-api supported. I believe gym does work on windows, but you should probably try getting it working with python first before trying to get node.js to work with it. Sorry about that!
