从 Github 安装 Python 包

Question

I would like to install 10K-MDA-Section from Github ( https://github.com/rflugum/10K-MDA-Section ) but when running this command in the prompt:

pip install --upgrade git+git://github.com/rflugum/10K-MDA-Section

I get this error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 
  'C:\\Users\\...\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-req-build-1vmt3z0t\\setup.py'

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error 
  code 1 in C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-req-build-1vmt3z0t\

Any idea what is causing this?

Answer 1

As long as the repository ( rflugum/10K-MDA-Section ) does not have a setup.py file, a pip install won't work.

Check if cloning, and then executing MDA Extractor.py directly ( python MDA Extractor.py )is enough.

Answer 2

The pip install is looking for a setup.py file and the FileNotFound error implies that the file is not present (Since a pip calls setup.py to proceed with the installation.)

The way forward should be to clone the git repo and then execute python MDA Extractor.py
