I am trying to install Cloudmonkey on a VM. I downloaded cloudmonkey and tried to run the following command "pip install cloudmonkey" and get the following error:
Collecting cloudmonkey
Using cached cloudmonkey-5.3.2.tar.gz
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

oudmonkey
Would someone be able to tell me what I am doing wrong with this install?
In source code, line 50 to 53 have four print statements without parenthesis in their setup.py. That is not compatible with python 3.x
It looks like from version 5.2 to 5.3, they added the print statements as upgrade notes. I recommend looking if there is an issue for compatibility, or you can download from source, remove those print statements, and then build/install.
Also, they have a docker image in github if you want to try that as well.
I just installed it using python 2.x and it was successful.

Unable to install pygame on Python via pip (Windows 10)

Closed 2 years ago.
So I've got a bit of an issue with python and/or pip...
Python, when asked to download pygame in CMD with py -m pip install -U pygame --user, gives me this error:

It seems to download the files just fine but does NOT like to continue after that. I'm running python 3.8. And yes, Python is installed in the PATH variable.
I feel like this could be a really stupid issue and I've just overlooked something but I cant seem to find anything that helps.
-----edit-----
I've worked out a bit of a solution - just download and use python 3.7 instead of 3.8 and that seems to work better.
Assuming you're using an IDE with the ability to automatically install imports (PyCharm for example) you can just set your IDE's current interpreter to python 3.7.4 and use it to install pygame instead of using pip. The problem has something to do with the pygame install not working with python 3.8 so either revert your interpreter, role back to python 3.7 or wait for pygame to get updated
When I run
python3 -m pip install pyspatialite
I get the following error:

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-14jnmfoo/pyspatialite/
I don't understand the issue. Is there a syntax error in the module PySpatiaLite? What do I do about it?
I am using Python 3.5 and Linux Bash Shell in Windows 10. If there is any additional info needed, let me know in the comments and I will edit the question.
Seems like it is a known issue in python 3:
https://github.com/lokkju/pyspatialite/issues/27
print "Is sphinx installed? If not, try 'sudo easy_install sphinx'."
Seems that this library is written in Python 2.7 as they are using the Python 2 print statement. When pip3 runs the libraries setup.py the error you are receiving:
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
Is entirely expected as the correct Python 3 syntax would be:
print("Is sphinx installed? If not, try 'sudo easy_install sphinx'.")
You can either switch to Python 2.7 for writing code to interface with this, or reach out to the contributors for assistance. Looking at their documentation on PyPi (https://pypi.org/project/pyspatialite/) it looks like the project is still in Alpha and has not been updated with a new release since 2013. I wouldn't expect much in terms of Python 3 compatibility without forking the source and correcting it yourself.
EDIT
Looking at the GitHub commits (https://github.com/lokkju/pyspatialite/commits/master) a small amount of commits have been merged in since 2013, but I would still not expect Python 3 support.
I have been using WinPython 2.2.5 with Python 2.7 and it works nice. The problem that I have is when I want to install additional libraries to use from the https://pypi.python.org repository.
For example I tried to install pdfminer which is in following link: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pdfminer/
I have read that I can use pip install which is in the following path on my computer:
C:\WinPython-32bit-2.7.6.3\python-2.7.6\Scripts
On that directory I have saved the tar.gz file of pdfminer and from the windows command prompt on the aforementioned path I have typed:
pip install pdfminer(version number).tar.gz
It seems that it works fine, because there are no error messages, but when I open the winpython and in the command shell I put:
pdf2txt
to see if it works I got the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'pdf2txt' is not defined
What am I doing wrong?
According to the documentation, "PDFMiner comes with two handy tools: pdf2txt.py and dumppdf.py." So, instead of trying to run pdf2txt.py by importing it, you need to run it as it shows in the example in the documentation, like this:
$ pdf2txt.py -o output.html samples/naacl06-shinyama.pdf
where output.html is the file that is created from the mined text, and samples/naac106-shinyama.pdf is the PDF you want to mine.
I have this requirements.txt file:
Django==1.9.4
EbookLib==0.15

When I run $pip install -r requirements.txt in my virtualenv i have the following error:

SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
It's seems that this file is written in python2.
Is there a way to fix this and all of the requirements to be installed ?
EDIT:
If I try it to install in my global env, there is no problem. If I'm in virtualenv it first tries to collect something. It acts different ..
In python 3K, print is not a reserved keyword, but a built-in function, so you must use it like below:
print("Hello world!")
If you use print as a keyword, the interpreter will raise an exception:
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
You encounter such problem for installing a library, namely, pdfminer here, implemented in python 2 under python 3K environment. To solve this problem, you have 2 solutions:
Find the python 3K compatible version of the library.
Make a virtualenv using python 2 as the default interpreter.
So i guess that your pip is from python3? In that case there is no easy fix as the library is clearly not compatibile with python3, even the print in error is not going to work, and that is just top of the iceberg.
You will either have to:
Downgrade your app to python2
Find a different library that can do the same
Port the library to python3.
Porting library to python3 may not be as scary as you think, especially since it seems that someone started to work on that already but I have no way of verifying how mature is that, but it for sure is a start.
I want to use the pdfminer for extracting the text info. I have downloaded the pdfminer-20131113. I have installed the python in C:\python34.
Now using cmd, I am setting the path to the setup.py file of pdfminer.
and running the following command.
python setup.py install
But I am getting the below error.
> D:\pdfminer-20101226>python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 3, in <module>
from pdfminer import __version__
File "D:\pdfminer-20101226\pdfminer\__init__.py", line 4
if __name__ == '__main__': print __version__
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
It seems to be some error in the setup.py file of pdfminer, which I am not sure how to resolve.
Also, I saw a pdf2txt.py file in the build folder of pdfminer. I tried to use that also as pdf2txt.py -o output.html pdffilename.pdf (with full path). but instead of converting it. it opens the pdf2txt.py file.
The PDFMiner project homepage states:
Written entirely in Python. (for version 2.4 or newer)
and further down:
Install Python 2.4 or newer. (Python 3 is not supported.)
so you'll have to install Python 2 to run this project.
Alternatively, you could try the Python 3 port, pdfminer3k; it hasn't seen any updates in 20 months, while PDFMiner does have more recent releases, so your mileage may vary.
This should solve your problem in Python 3
pip install pdfminer.six
pdfminer.six is a fork with Python 2+3 support using six. Last commit was 15 days ago.
