Installation issues

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Thank you for the code and project. They are appreciated.

The installation process wasn't stated (and as a result, unclear). An aside, it may be worthwhile to state this is a Python 3 package.

I assumed the installation was a python setup.py build / install from experience, and eventually found my way to the --help-commands. Although, I was in an activate conda environment, the installation called python binaries located in /usr/lib. Executing which python showed my initial call had used conda env's python. This appeared to have messed with the dependency installation of setup.py (requiring me to manually install the requests, numpy, pandas, pyarrow modules - which is not big deal).

Also, I attempted to use the -n flag for a dry-run (i.e., python setup.py install -n) - however the code simply installed. Granted, I ran the build command as python setup.py build.

Other than that, I was able to pull some of the data from minnie65_public_v117.
