Pip install

[TommySchooner]

Hi there,

Thank you very much for helping!

I am trying to use the GFF3toolkit in my MacOS, installing using pip install. I wonder what is the reason for that? Thank you very much for helping!

The following are my errors:

Sorry to hear about the mishap, it looks like your python environment didn't have the wheel module
I suggest you could make sure that wheel is installed
pip install wheel
*Support is offered in pip >= 1.4 and setuptools >= 0.8.
so you could also install it explicitly yourself, together with setuptools:
python -m pip install wheel setuptools

if there still has the error about setup.py egg_info after wheel was installed.
you could try the following commit:
Please update setup tools pip install -U setuptools
or sudo pip3 install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel

Thanks for using i5k GFF3toolkits.

Hi @OscarChou211 - just checking, were you able to install using @ShangYuChiang's advice?

If so, we can close the issue.
