Error building pip3 install git+git://XXX

[kranked354]

There doesn't seem to be a 'setup.py' file located in the repository, so after it get's cloned by this command it brings up the following error:

The key part being "No such file" : 'setup.py'

Is there another way to build this library?

Copying the file nScopePy directly into my local directory then just brings up the following error too:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/XXXX/PycharmProjects/BCI/PyBCI.py", line 1, in <module>
    import nScopePy as ns       # import the nScopePy module
  File "/Users/XXXX/PycharmProjects/BCI/nScopePy.py", line 14, in <module>
    nScopeAPI = CDLL(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "../mac/libnscope.so"))
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/ctypes/__init__.py", line 345, in __init__
    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: dlopen(/Users/XXXX/PycharmProjects/BCI/../mac/libnscope.so, 6): image not found

Even when I copy the rest of the files into that expressed directory (including /mac/libnscope.so) the error remains.

It clearly needs a setup.py file to be written and contained to make it simple.
I'll try copying the setup.py file from pyserial and rewrite appropriately and test that out.

I've tried making the following 'setup.py' file:

# setup.py for nScopePy
#
# Direct install (all systems):
#   "python setup.py install"
#
# For Python 3.x use the corresponding Python executable,
# e.g. "python3 setup.py ..."

It's giving an error where I've annotated:

running install
running bdist_egg
running egg_info
writing nScopePy.egg-info/PKG-INFO
writing dependency_links to nScopePy.egg-info/dependency_links.txt
writing top-level names to nScopePy.egg-info/top_level.txt
error: package directory 'nScopeAPI' does not exist

I've tried nScopeAPI, nScopePy, python/nScopePy... not a clue what I'm doing here.
Would love just to record some data at a set frequency - not much.
