Script not added to path upon installation #7

Open WhyNotHugo opened 4 years ago

WhyNotHugo commented 4 years ago

I tries installing this, but it didn't add any script to my PATH, or anything alike. I only got these files when installing via python setup.py:

notify-send.py /usr/lib/

Installing via pip doesn't seem to work at all:

Here are some more logs about this:

This needs some entrypoints:

By the way, the maintainers should add a git tag pointing to the same releases on PyPI, otherwise you can't match the PyPI version to the code.

Thanks for reporting.

I read a little bit into it and it appears to be normal, that pip-build files are not in the path directory.

For me, pip says explicitly:

 WARNING: The script notify-send.py is installed in '/home/philipp/.local/bin' which is not on PATH.
  Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location.

If you have a good suggestion, how this should be fixed (if it is a bug at all), please comment or open a PR

Dragoninventor commented 3 years ago

For anyone this might help, I've found that running sudo pip install notify-send.py as opposed to the command without sudo seems to work without any path errors. Perhaps this could be included in the README so others won't run into this issue.

However I'm new to github, so if this isn't relevant or helpful then my apologies.

phuhl commented 3 years ago

Thanks for the input, I am not sure what the right way to install with pip is. Not sure if sudo is best practice, so I will not put it in the Readme for now, but hopefully, anybody who stumbles across the issue will find the answer here
