pip install libpostal issue on Windows

[ldyadin-wiley]

Hey guys,

I'm getting the following issue trying to install a Python bind for libpostal on Wilndows 10 machine during running setup.py: "Cannot open include file: 'libpostal/libpostal.h': No such file or directory". Looks like the same as below on MacOS. Could you please estimate when this could be fixed?

Thanks, Leonid

Did you install de C lib? you need to download it from the repo and compile, is in the instructions

[ldyadin-wiley]

Well, I tried it differently. Firstly, you don't have any such instructions on pypostal page for Windows. Trying "Installing libpostal" section's "git clone htps:// ..." I was getting the following error: "fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/openvenues/libpostal/': error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version" Secondly, I installed MS VS Tools, as I was getting the error requesting this during "pip install pypostal", so I thought pypostal installer will assemble the library, otherwise why would it needed C compiler installed? But it didn't help. Then I've successfully installed the library the way is recommended on libpostal page using MSys2, etc. This didn't help either. So, I run out of options.

I have libpostal installed and I have the same issue as yours @ldyadin-wiley

Did you finally succeeded?

[ldyadin-wiley]

Nope, used Java instead.

Hi, We dropped it so I don’t care anymore.

I think the most effective solution I found yet is:

1. Don't use Windows

It's a joke, please don't hate me. I'm trying to find a fix also.

[GA-Ramlov]

Anyone that have found a way to fix it yet?

[simonm3]

[XtineInWa]

[ldyadin-wiley]

Nope.

This seems to work for Windows. Something I found online: https://pypi.org/project/pypostalwin/
