ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: python setup.py egg_info while installing "octoprint-tuyasmartplug"

[definitely-not-a-t-rex]

I'm unable to install the plugin because while trying to install it I get:

The problem seem to be with pyaes, has anybody who got the issue managed to fix it?

connect via ssh and run the command source ~/oprint/bin/activate; pip install pyaes==1.6.1

connect via ssh and run the command source ~/oprint/bin/activate; pip install pyaes==1.6.1

So. I'm running into the same issue, but I'm not running Octoprint from a Pi, I'm running if from a windows PC (older thing I had sitting around), so I don't think I can connect via SSH. How would I go about fixing the issue?

[ziirish]

The Python doc says C:\> <venv>\Scripts\activate.bat here Where <venv> is the path where octoprint should be installed on your system. Once you have activated your venv, you can run the pip install pyaes==1.6.1 command.

Thank you so much, it worked great! Now, to figure out how to get the local key (I'm not great at computer coding so all this is quite a project for me)

You may find some tips & tricks in #8

now fixed in 0.3.0
