Cannot locate pygubu-designer.exe after instalation

I'm trying to install pygubu-designer, but the 'pygubu-designer.exe' never shows up in any of the folders after the installation process.

https://github.com/alejandroautalan/pygubu-designer
I did:
pip install pygubu
cmd
pip install pygubu-designer
cmd
I have couple of folders with pygubu but pygubu-designer.exe is missing
explorer
I have python 3.10.4 and pip 20.0.4 and python is added as system variable:
cmd
I tried to upgrade pip version but it did not work

Could not locate pygubudesigner within my python310\Scripts folder and any other but the cmd command mentioned in this issue: https://github.com/alejandroautalan/pygubu/issues/222 worked for me
python -m pygubudesigner

pip is installed in pycharm but cant able to run pip commands

Inside my pycharm package section pip (v:21.3.1) is showing as installed but when running pip commands it shows following error
pip : The term 'pip' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was
included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

use !pip that might help. Else, try to see pip list and uninstall the package and try uninstalling using '!pip', this takes directly outside the main terminal.

My guess is that you are not inside the Pycharm virtual environment.
Try to go to the terminal/command line and go to the project directory,
you should look for 'venv' directory.
Than activate the virtual enviorment.
terminal:
source /venv/Scripts/activate (run activate.sh file)
command line
call /venv/Scripts/activate (run activate.bat file)
and then you will be able to run pip

Solution 1:
Install packages within pycharm & run the code within pycharm
Solution 2:
Find python.exe in the install directonary, open cmd in the folder and run following:
python.exe -m pip install ...
Solution 3:
activate the venv (you can find instructions on google or use the one from the dude above)

This might help
python -m pip install <package name>

Different solutions to this problem:
First: you are not on the pycharm terminal but on the power-shell terminal
(if so, use the drop-down menu to the right of the +)
edit: if you opened the file/folder without creating a project, pip won't work in it (using a virtual env anyway)
Second : you have a python3 environment
(use pip3 instead)
Last : your path is badly configured (not a big problem, passing by python -m pip ... it will work (or python3 or other version installed))
Finally, except in very specific cases
file->setting->python Interpreter allows you to install anything you want without command line
Hoping to have helped you ;}

How do I run this python script?

I'm new to python, and I was wondering if you could help me run a python script. I'm trying to run a script called PunchBox from Github: https://github.com/psav/punchbox. So far, I have Python 3.9.5 and Git Bash.
In the GitHub page, it says:
To install, clone the repo, cd into it and then execute the following:
virtualenv -p python2 .pb2
source .pb2/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
pip install .
What does this mean exactly? Where do I run this code?
So far, I tried downloading the zip file from GitHub, installing Python 3.5.9, using cmd, finding the directory with cd, and running that code; but got an error:
Exception: Versioning for this project requires either an sdist tarball, or access to an upstream git repository. It's also possible that there is a mismatch between the package name in setup.cfg and the argument given to pbr.version.VersionInfo. Project name punchbox was given, but was not able to be found.
error in punchbox setup command: Error parsing C:\Users\Mi\Downloads\punchbox-master\punchbox-master\setup.cfg: Exception: Versioning for this project requires either an sdist tarball, or access to an upstream git repository. It's also possible that there is a mismatch between the package name in setup.cfg and the argument given to pbr.version.VersionInfo. Project name punchbox was given, but was not able to be found.
There's also a requirements.txt that lists additional scripts needed:
pre-commit
click
mido
pbr
PyYAML
svgwrite
Do these install automatically upon running the script for the first time?
I'm a little confused why I'm getting an error. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
Thank you so much!

I assume you are new to programming. You have to write these lines in a terminal.
On Windows, it is Command Prompt or PowerShell Applications (latter preferred). On macOS, it is terminal
Copy all these lines at once, and paste them to your preferred terminal. The terminal will automatically run these one after the another.
FYI: Venv is a python package to create a virtual environment. The preceding commands set up the environment. Now install the required dependencies using this command instead of the last command (pip install .)
pip install -r requirements.txt

Based on your comment, it looks like you don't have virtualenv installed in your system. You may install it using the command pip install virtualenv.
Now, as you are using a Windows machine, you may open a Command Prompt or Windows PowerShell window and navigate to the directory where your cloned project resides.
Now, execute the following commands.
virtualenv -p python2 .pb2
.pb2\Scripts\activate.bat
pip install -U pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
Once you are done working in your virtual environment (which is named .pb2), you may close it by executing deactivate command.

#Giovanni T.
See, as far as you have installed Python and also downloaded the GitHub Repository as a zip file.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Just run this command.
Please make sure that the directory is pointing to the folder where this requirements.txt file is stored.

Unable to do pip install pandas-profiling

I've tried severally to install Pandas-Profiling on my windows 10 cmd using "pip install pandas-profiling" but it doesn't work. I've also tried installing it on conda but its the same story. I need help installing this please.

I also had the same problem. It didn't work with a normal pip install. I fixed it by running the following command in anaconda prompt:
conda install -c anaconda pandas-profiling
You can find the full documentation here.
Hope it helps :)

if you don't provide the error message, we can't help you.
If you have the following error message:
'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
It means that Python is not added to your Path environment variable. How to fix it:
First solution: Adding Python to the Path by going in your environment variables, in System Variables click on Path then Edit, and in the grid, add your Python's path (which may be C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python<version>\). You can also add Python yo the Path by uninstall it and install it again and in the installer, make sure you check "Add Python to PATH"
Second solution: You can run pip by putting python3 -m before you pip command, like that: python3 -m pip install pandas-profiling.

I have been able to find a solution to the error message. I had to install the Microsoft C++ Build Tools, then I launched it and did the installation through it using ‘pip install pandas-profiling’ you can download using the link https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

For me it only works also if putting "py"
so:
py -m pip install pandas-profiling
In the command prompt.

How to make pip available to git bash command line on Windows?

I added the pip installation folder in my python site-packages directory to my PATH, but I can still only run it via python -m pip in my git bash. Just pip gives me command not found.
I looked around the pip directory and I don't see any binaries, so this makes sense. Yet clearly pip is a thing that is normally used on the command line without python -m. So what component am I missing here?

Try adding C:/path/to/python/Scripts/ to PATH
There should be a pip.exe there!

in your Anaconda directory there is a pip file in the direcctory Scripts.
add this path : C:\Users#yourname\Anaconda3\Scripts
i did the same and it was successful !!
(when i wrote pip in git bash it worked)
