and

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/python3.8 -u -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] = '"'"'/private/var/folders/_4/bc_4xmsn63vb8kt8t5_g1wqm0000gn/T/pip-install-hby05qne/python-uinput/setup.py'"'"'; __file__='"'"'/private/var/folders/_4/bc_4xmsn63vb8kt8t5_g1wqm0000gn/T/pip-install-hby05qne/python-uinput/setup.py'"'"';f=getattr(tokenize, '"'"'open'"'"', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('"'"'\r\n'"'"', '"'"'\n'"'"');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, '"'"'exec'"'"'))' install --record /private/var/folders/_4/bc_4xmsn63vb8kt8t5_g1wqm0000gn/T/pip-record-xlhm8d89/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile Check the logs for full command output.

Can anyone help?

Edit: it returns the same error using normal pip

Answer 1

Solved. Package i was trying to install was not compatible with MacOS.

Answer 2

Python 2 is installed by default on Apple computers(check by $ python --version ), but if you need Python 3 then you can use following steps-

1. Install Xcode and Homebrew. For Xcode do this- $ xcode-select --install . Then install homebrew /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

To confirm Homebrew installed correctly, run this command: $ brew doctor

2. Install Python 3. Do this - $ brew install python3
3. Lastly, check your python version by $ python3 --version
