Manual install instructions / offline install / behind a proxy #149

Closed cjohnsonuk closed 6 years ago

cjohnsonuk commented 7 years ago

I'm trying to install on windows I'm behind a proxy that requires authentication

When I run

pip3 install hovercraft

or download hovercraft, unzip, change into the directory and run

pip3 install -e ./

I get this:

Collecting docutils>=0.9 (from hovercraft==2.5.dev0) Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authentication Required',))': /simple/docutils/ Retrying (Retry(total=3, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authentication Required',))': /simple/docutils/ Retrying (Retry(total=2, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authentication Required',))': /simple/docutils/ Retrying (Retry(total=1, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authentication Required',))': /simple/docutils/ Retrying (Retry(total=0, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', OSError('Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authentication Required',))': /simple/docutils/ Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement docutils>=0.9 (from hovercraft==2.5.dev0) (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for docutils>=0.9 (from hovercraft==2.5.dev0)

Is it a non trivial task to do a manual installation that will work offline?

Making installers in general is a non-trivial task, yes. I haven't looked into making Windows distributions, and I don't think I will have time in the immediate future.

However, you could try to run pip --download on another windows machine that is connected to the internet. See here:

Closing from lack of feedback. I'm assuming it works.
