I am writing a python tool that should get information from Jira. I wanted to use Python-Jira but cannot install it properly. I am using (have to use) python 2.7 which doesn't come with pip and I cannot install pip because I do not have local admin rights (and won't get them without hassle).
Is there a way to install/use python-jira without the pip installation process? I tried copying the jira package to the site-packages folder but it seems I run into dependency problems ('ImportError: No module named six.moves' when I try import Jira from jira) which to resolve it seems I have to follow the pip installation process.
Thanks for your help.
Install Virtualenv and you will have your own version of Python and Pip, so you should be able to install jira-python properly.
There is a lot of guides how to do it.
For Linux I recommend this one.

hi I have Anaconda installed at work. I tried to pip install sas7bdat, it does not work seems because I don't have internet access or any access to whatever could be downloaded....
Is there a way to pip install sas7bdat if I dont have internet access or external source. Is the file I need to install already inside my computer given I have Anaconda installed? Please kindly assist.
I dont have access due to security reason.
Anaconda should already include sas7bdat, it should be available in your base environment (see package list)
You can download sas7bdat wheel manually and then install it.
See: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27909082/5304366
You can also use a portable Python scientific distribution (e.g. WinPython) that may include sas7bdat.
You could probably also setup a local/private pypi server that would allow you to pip install any package. But I guess it is more work.
I followed the quickstart then I simply clone hello_world from here. I already downloaded google_appengine sdk from here. I extract it and now I have folder google_appengine alongside with hello_world
so I execute it like this:
It runs well apparently, until I start to request to localhost:8080.
then I got this error:
what's wrong with it? did I miss something?
google said that I can use the built-in library without manually install it with pip.
PS: it works when I just deploy it to my project on Google. and also it works if I manually install webapp2 inside lib inside hello_world like described here then request it locally.
my python version Python 2.7.6 on ubuntu 14.04 32bit
Please if anybody can solve this I would be appreciate it.
Seems like this is acknowledged bug in app engine SDK. As a temporary workaround, you may try this steps:
Uninstalling the following PIP packages resolved this issue for me.
sudo pip uninstall gcloud
sudo pip uninstall googleapis-common-protos
sudo pip uninstall protobuf

Be sure to use correct executable of pip if you use virtualenv or have multiple python versions installed.
Thanks to #Dmytro Sadovnychyi for the answer. It doesn't work for me to uninstall those packages because I never installed it before, But that makes me think maybe built-in library conflict with other package so I decide to create Virtual Environment. just fresh environment no need to install any package.
activate the environment then execute dev_appserver.py hello_world now it works
for now I'll stick with it until next update like said here
I am trying to use Pythonanywhere to run some of my scripts. Eventually I would like to turn the entire code into a webapp, but I am not there yet.
Anyway, I would like to install a couple of bioinformatics packages on Pythonanywhere. Biopython has wrappers for these tools, but you still need the actual tools instaled. The tools in question do not have pip or easyinstall compatibility. So I think I will have to download/compile from source? However, I keep on running into "no permission" issues. Would a virtualenv be a solution?
As always, any help is greatly appreciated
Virtualenv works for Python packages.
However if you're trying to use non Python packages/libraries it won't be of much use.
Since the tools don't have easyinstall or pip compatibility I don't think using virtualenv will work out.
Download and compile from source should work though.
Note that if Biopython is installable via easyinstall or pip then use virtualenv to get that.
Where can I download _winreg for python3 if I can at all. I have my 'windir' on E:\Windows. I do not know if cx_Freeze did not notice that. I am using cx_Freeze to create an msi installer.
As it says in the _winreg documentation, it has been renamed to winreg in Python 3.0. You should run the 2to3 tool if you're converting code that was written for Python 2.x.
I know this is an old question, but this was the first search result when Googling for ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_winreg', and perhaps may be helpful for someone.
I got the same error when trying to use a virtual environment folder, which has been created using different (already deleted) python binaries. The solution was recreate the virtual environment:
Delete the virtual environment folder
Run python -m venv <name_of_virtual_environment>
I have found an easy solution for this, Even though i found it after a lot of Rnd, the solution implementation is so simple and straight forward. Hope it can help many people with the same problem.
If you dont have the latest version of Python installed on your machine, You need to download it from (https://www.python.org/downloads/) and then click on Add to path option and just finish the installer.
Please open CMD and move to the python latest version directory, then run the pip install package name (e.g) pip install pygame and it will be successful
1. C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32
2. C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32>pip install Pygame
It will install the packages now without any issues.
Downloading
Successfully installed Pygame-1.9.4
C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32>
If you are still facing issues in Pycharm after trying the above solution, please try the following steps too.
Create new virtual Environment from settings menu and select the latest version of python framework as Project Interpreter and give a new folder path.
select the pip package you want to import. Recompile the code and the error will clear.
Hope this helps.
When you encounter an error like module of simpleai not found,
use
pip install simpleai
in the prompt and then execute. It will get installed.
I'm working with PyInstaller under Python 2.6, which is only partially supported due to the mess MS have created with their manifest nonense which now affects Python since it is now MSVC8 compiled.
The problem is that the manifest embedding support relies on the pywin32 extensions in order to build which is a pain because without including the host's site-packages folder when I create the virtualenv (kinda defeats the point in a build environment) I cannot find a way to install the required extensions so they are accessible to PyInstaller.
Has anyone found a solution to this issue?
I found http://old.nabble.com/Windows:-virtualenv-and-pywin32--td27658201.html (now a dead link) which offered the following solution:
Browse http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/ for the URL of the exe you want
Activate your virtualenv
Run easy_install http://PATH.TO/EXE/DOWNLOAD
This works with modern versions of setuptools (circa February 2014, reported by tovmeod in the comments).
If you are using an old version of setuptools (or distribute it merged back into setuptools), you may get this error message:
error: c:\users\blah\appdata\local\temp\easy_install-ibkzv7\pywin32-214.win32-py2.6.exe is not a valid distutils Windows .exe
In which case:
Download the exe yourself
Activate your virtualenv
Run easy_install DOWNLOADED_FILE.exe
I rather hopefully tried "pip install" rather than "easy_install", but this didn't work, and likely never will (citation needed).
Finally, I found but haven't tested a solution at http://www.mail-archive.com/python-list#python.org/msg272040.html which is:
Solved this by copying the pywin32.pth file into my virtualenv site-packages
and editing the file to point to the path.
If the other options don't work for you, maybe this will?
For Python 2.7 or 3.x use pypiwin32.
pip install pypiwin32
OK, well since I had to find a way forward I improvised. I've internally created a git repository with a hacked-together version of pywin32 that will install within a virtualenv using the standard setup.py script. It took a lot of fiddling to make it work right but I managed to get it to load and the dependent code now works as I need it to. If people feel this would be of benefit to the community please post a comment: if I get enough I'll try and put something up on my github account.
This may have been improved since previous answer, since I've successfully installed pywin32 on sandbox on several machines without any specific "hacks" :
$ virtualenv sandbox
$ sandbox\scripts\activate
(sandbox) $ git clone https://github.com/Travis-Sun/pywin32.git
(sandbox) $ cd pywin32
(sandbox) $ python setup.py install
Tested with following environment :
windows 7
git
python 2.7.10 with virtualenv
VS2008. It may also work (but I've not tested yet) with
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266
Edit: Scratch this for now, appears to be some problems with the installation still...
I got rather tired of the whole situation, and just created a set of converted wheels ("wheel convert <.exe>"). I'll try and keep them maintained for the most recent build, but do shout if there are any issues.
https://tr00st.co.uk/python/wheel/pywin32/
Installation can be done easily using pip and pointing to the package matching your version and architecture. For example, for Python 3.5/amd64:
pip install https://tr00st.co.uk/python/wheel/pywin32/pywin32-219-cp35-none-win_amd64.whl
Caveat: The --upgrade process currently fails, as the uninstall procedure is unable to clean up after itself (Access Denied when cleaning up win32api.pyd) - this is only when removing the temporary directory, which can be manually deleted. Easiest way around this is to uninstall and reinstall instead of upgrading, then manually delete the temporary folder.
