pip未安装依赖项

Question

I have a library with the following setup.py :

from setuptools import setup

from mylib import __version__

requirements = ['paramiko']
tests_require = ['pytest']


def main():
    setup(
        name='mypackage',
        description='A collection of utilities',
        url='http://example.net',
        version=__version__,
        author='Me Me',
        author_email='me@me.net',
        packages=['mylib'],
        zip_safe=False,
        install_requires=requirements,
        tests_require=tests_require,
    )

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

I have released this package to an internal devpi server. Whenever I try to install it, I get:

» pip install mypackage
Looking in indexes: http://devpi.mine/myuser/dev/+simple/
Collecting mypackage

        import paramiko
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'paramiko'

    ----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-ee238ja7/mypackage/

Why is pip not installing the requirements listed in install_requires , in setup.py ?

Answer 1

That is because you are referring your package before setup has been executed.

Pip need to first touch setup(...) to do everything. But before it, you from mylib import __version__ . So setup doesn't execute at all.
