Failing to install pyglow

[RobertoMantas]

I run "git clone git://github.com/timduly4/pyglow.git pyglow" and everything works fine. Then I "cd pyglow" and after that, I run "make -C src/pyglow/models source" but there it pops up an error saying:

touch ./dl_models/hwm07/dummy.txt touch ./dl_models/hwm93/dummy.txt touch ./dl_models/igrf11/dummy.txt touch ./dl_models/igrf12/dummy.txt touch ./dl_models/iri12/dummy.txt touch ./dl_models/iri16/dummy.txt touch ./dl_models/msis/dummy.txt python get_models.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "get_models.py", line 3, in from future import standard_library ImportError: No module named future make: *** [download] Error 1

I already installed "pip install future" so I don't know what is missing. I have also installed gfortran and f2py. I would really appreciate your help with this issue so I can start using this tool. Thank you for your work

@RobertoMantas It looks like your installation of future is the problem-- your pip could be installing it under python3, or some other strange location. You can test a successful installation of future with:

 $ python -c "import future"

What do you receive?

[RobertoMantas]

If I put $ python -c "import future", I receive:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError: No module named future

But if I put $ python3.6 -c "import future", it is recognized. When I write pip list or oio3 list on both lists it appears "future 0.17.1"
How could I resolve this? Thank you in advance

[timduly4]

Right, so it's installed under python3, which is what we suspected.

Try installing under python2.7 via:

$ pip2.7 install future --user

[RobertoMantas]

I get back, -bash: pip2.7: command not found both pip and pip3 go to the python3.6 folder. because if I try either with pip or pip3 it says: Requirement already satisfied: future in /sw/lib/python3.6/site-packages (0.17.1) Thank you

[timduly4]

Since this is an issue with installing future into the correct python 2/3, I'll close for now. Thanks.

I solved it! With "python -m pip" will directly look for the pip on that version of python. If I would put python3 -m pip it would work in the pip for python3. As I needed for python2.7 with "python -m pip install future" it worked the installation! Thank you
