Describe the bug
While trying to run pip install -e .[dev,sql] I'm given an error/note like:
ERROR: File "setup.py" not found. Directory cannot be installed in editable mode: /home/hackme/Pobrane/git/signal-export
(A "pyproject.toml" file was found, but editable mode currently requires a setup.py based build.)
To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior. Please include the exact commands tried.
Just run the step (for linux) with the command pip install -e .[dev,sql].
Does someone know what to do or how to fix this ?
Is this a missing component/requirement ?
PIP version
pip 20.3.4 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip (python 3.9)
Python 3 version
Python 3.9.2
What's more, after running pip install signal-export[sql] the effect is:
Editable install: you need pip >= 21.3.
No SQL: Try this: pip install 'signal-export[sql]==1.5.5'
Editable install: you need pip >= 21.3.
Thanks, worked - now I have 23.x version
No SQL: Try this: pip install 'signal-export[sql]==1.5.5'
This worked as well but... there is a "yellow" text while running it.
Is there something wrong ?
It should be fine. It tried to install pysqlcipher3 one way, failed, and so tried another way.
Whether pysqlcipher3 will actually work is another question.
Alright, seems it worked! Thanks for help : )
