ta-lib replit python install problem, ERROR: No matching distribution found for talib-binary

I use it on my windows machine by downloading its binary. I also use it in Heroku from its herokus build pack. I don't know what operating system replit use. But I try every possible commed like.
!pip install ta-lib
!pip install talib-binary
It's not working with replit. I thought it work like google co-lab but its not the same.
can anyone use TA-LIB with replit. if so. How you install it?

Getting TA-Lib work on Replit
(by installing it from sources)
Create a new replit with Nix toolset with a Python template.
In main.py write:
import talib
print (talib.__ta_version__)
This will be our test case. If ta-lib is installed the python main.py (executed in Shell) will return something like:
$ python main.py
b'0.6.0-dev (Jan 1 1980 00:00:00)'
We need to prepare a tools for building TA-Lib sources. There is a replit.nix file in your project's root folder (in my case it was ~/BrownDutifulLinux). Every time you execute a command like cmake the Nix reports that:
cmake: command not installed. Multiple versions of this command were found in Nix.
Select one to run (or press Ctrl-C to cancel):
cmake.out
cmakeCurses.out
cmakeWithGui.out
cmakeMinimal.out
cmake_2_8.out
If you select cmake.out it will add a record about it into the replit.nix file. And next time you call cmake, it will know which cmake version to launch. Perhaps you may manually edit replit.nix file... But if you're going to add such commands in a my way, note that you must execute them in Shell in your project root folder as replit.nix file is located in it. Otherwise Nix won't remember your choice.
After all my replit.nix file (you may see its content with cat replit.nix) content was:
{ pkgs }: {
deps = [
pkgs.libtool
pkgs.automake
pkgs.autoconf
pkgs.cmake
pkgs.python38Full
];
env = {
PYTHON_LD_LIBRARY_PATH = pkgs.lib.makeLibraryPath [
# Needed for pandas / numpy
pkgs.stdenv.cc.cc.lib
pkgs.zlib
# Needed for pygame
pkgs.glib
# Needed for matplotlib
pkgs.xorg.libX11
];
PYTHONBIN = "${pkgs.python38Full}/bin/python3.8";
LANG = "en_US.UTF-8";
};
}
Which means I executed libtool, autoconf, automake and cmake in Shell. I always choose a generic suggestion from Nix, without a specific version. Note: some commands may report errors as we executing them in a wrong way just to add to a replit.nix.
3.
Once build tools are set up we need to get and build TA-Lib C library sources. To do that execute in Shell:
git clone https://github.com/TA-Lib/ta-lib.git
then
cd ta-lib/
libtoolize
autoreconf --install
./configure
If configure script is completed without any problems, build the library with:
make -j4
It will end up with some compilation errors, but they are related to some additional tools which are used to add new TA-Lib indicators and build at the end, but not the library itself. The library will be successfully compiled and you should be able to see it with:
$ ls ./src/.libs/
libta_lib.a libta_lib.lai libta_lib.so.0
libta_lib.la libta_lib.so libta_lib.so.0.0.0
Now we have our C library built, but we can't install it to a system default folders. So we have to use the library as is from the folders where it was build. All we need is just one more additional preparation:
mkdir ./include/ta-lib
cp ./include/*.h ./include/ta-lib/
This will copy a library headers to a subfolder, as they are designed to be used from a such subfolder (which they don't have due to impossibility to perform the installation step).
4.
Now we have TA-Lib C library built and prepared to be used locally from its build folders. All we need after that - is to compile the Python wrapper for it. But Python wrapper will look for a library only in system default folders, so we need to instruct it where our library is.
To do this, execute pwd and remember the absolute path to your project's root folder. In my case it was:
/home/runner/FormalPleasedOffice
Then adjust the paths (there are two) in a following command to lead to your project path:
TA_INCLUDE_PATH=/home/runner/FormalPleasedOffice/ta-lib/include/ TA_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/runner/FormalPleasedOffice/ta-lib/src/.libs/ pip install ta-lib
This is one line command, not a two commands.If the paths would be shorter it would look like:
TA_INCLUDE_PATH=/path1/ TA_LIBRARY_PATH=/path2/ pip install ta-lib.
After execution of this command the wrapper will be installed with two additional paths where it will look for a library and its header files.
That's actually all.
An alternative way would be to clone the wrapper sources, edit its setup.py and install wrapper manually. Just for the record this would be:
cd ~/Your_project
git clone https://github.com/mrjbq7/ta-lib.git ta-lib-wrapper
cd ta-lib-wrapper
Here edit the setup.py. Find the lines include_dirs = [ and library_dirs = [ and append your paths to these lists. Then you just need to:
python setup.py build
pip install .
Note the dot at the end.
5.
Go to the project's folder and try our python script:
$python main.py
b'0.6.0-dev (Jan 1 1980 00:00:00)'
Bingo!

The #truf answer is correct.
after you add the
pkgs.libtool
pkgs.automake
pkgs.autoconf
pkgs.cmake
in the replit.nix dippendancies.
git clone https://github.com/TA-Lib/ta-lib.git
cd ta-lib/
libtoolize
autoreconf --install
./configure
make -j4
mkdir ./include/ta-lib
cp ./include/*.h ./include/ta-lib/
TA_INCLUDE_PATH=/home/runner/FormalPleasedOffice/ta-lib/include/ TA_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/runner/FormalPleasedOffice/ta-lib/src/.libs/ pip install ta-lib
Note : FormalPleasedOffice should be your project name
Done.

What is the python-poetry config file after 1.2.0 release?

I have been using python-poetry for over a year now.
After poetry 1.2.0 release, I get such an info warning:
Configuration file exists at ~/Library/Application Support/pypoetry,
reusing this directory.
Consider moving configuration to ~/Library/Preferences/pypoetry,
as support for the legacy directory will be removed in an upcoming release.
But in docs, it is still indicated for macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/pypoetry
https://python-poetry.org/docs/configuration/
My question is that if ~/Library/Preferences/pypoetry is the latest decision what should I do for moving configuration to there?
Is just copy-pasting enough?

Looks like it is as simple as copy/pasting to the new directory.
I got the same error after upgrading to Poetry 1.2. So I created a pypoetry folder in the new Preferences directory, copy/pasted the config.toml to it, and just to be safe, I renamed the original folder to:
~/Library/Application Support/pypoetry_bak
After doing this and running poetry -V, the error is gone.

The copy paste equivalent of Ryan's answer:
cp -R ~/Library/Application\ Support/pypoetry ~/Library/Preferences/
mv ~/Library/Application\ Support/pypoetry ~/Library/Application\ Support/pypoetry_bak
poetry -V
(Couldn't comment with code block formatting)

Only the config.toml file need to move to ~/LibraryPreferences/pypoetry, meanwhile modify the ~/Library/Application\ Support/pypoetry/config.toml file name as config.toml_bak.

Installing Python GTK+ on macOS Monterey 12.4 - Module Not Found

I am trying to build a GTK application in MacOS (Monterey, v. 12.4) that includes both C GTK components and Python GTK components. I am following the instructions from both here and here. I had minimal issues with the first part (although for some reason I got an error where jhbuild said cargo did not exist when building librsvg during the call to jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-gtk3, despite .new_local/bin being at the front of PATH). The instructions there were simply:
sh gtk-osx-setup.sh
alias jhbuild="PATH=.new_local/bin:$PATH jhbuild"
jhbuild bootstrap-gtk-osx
jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap meta-gtk-osx-gtk3
In any case, the issue that I am having now is installing either set of bindings for Python. When I attempt to build either, jhbuild states both:
jhbuild#Cytocyberneticss-Mac-mini ~ % jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-python-gtk3
Loading .env environment variables...
jhbuild build: A module called ''meta-gtk-osx-python-gtk3'' could not be found.
Usage: run_jhbuild.py [ -f config ] command [ options ... ]
jhbuild#Cytocyberneticss-Mac-mini ~ % jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-python
Loading .env environment variables...
jhbuild build: A module called ''meta-gtk-osx-python'' could not be found.
Usage: run_jhbuild.py [ -f config ] command [ options ... ]
I do not have home-brew or MacPorts installed so neither of those could be getting in the way. I really am at a loss as to what the problems is here, when the other builds went fine. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need any more information about my setup.

As per the package maintainer:
I need to rewrite that Python wiki page, it's thoroughly out of date.
meta-gtk-osx-python-gtk3 got changed to meta-gtk-osx-python2-gtk3, and current versions of gtk-osx don't support gtk2. What's more, python2 is obsolete and its use is deprecated; you should use meta-gtk-osx-python3-gtk3. I haven't yet made a meta-gtk-osx-python3-gtk4 but you can easily do so in your own moduleset if your application is ready for it.
So simply use either:
jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-python3-gtk3
jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-python2-gtk3
This question will be irrelevant though as soon as the Wiki is updated...

./python: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I need to try python 3.7 with openssl-1.1.1 in Ubuntu 16.04. Both python and openssl versions are pre-release. Following instructions on how to statistically link openssl to python in a previous post, I downloaded the source for opnssl-1.1.1.
Then navigate to the source code for openssl and execute:
./config
sudo make
sudo make install
Then, edit Modules/Setup.dist to uncomment the following lines:
SSL=/usr/local/ssl
_ssl _ssl.c \
-DUSE_SSL -I$(SSL)/include -I$(SSL)/include/openssl \
-L$(SSL)/lib -lssl -lcrypto
Then download python 3.7 source code. Then, navigate inside the source code and execute:
./configure
make
make install
After I execute make install I got this error at the end of the terminal output:
./python: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
generate-posix-vars failed
Makefile:596: recipe for target 'pybuilddir.txt' failed
make: *** [pybuilddir.txt] Error 1
I could not figure out what is the problem and what I need to do.

This has (should have) nothing to do with Python or OpenSSL versions.
Python build process, includes some steps when the newly built interpreter is launched, and attempts to load some of the newly built modules - including extension modules (which are written in C and are actually shared objects (.sos)).
When an .so is loaded, the loader must find (recursively) all the .so files that the .so needs (depends on), otherwise it won't be able to load it.
Python has some modules (e.g. _ssl*.so, _hashlib*.so) that depend on OpenSSL libs. Since you built yours against OpenSSL1.1.1 (the lib names differ from what comes by default on the system: typically 1.0.*), the loader won't be able to use the default ones.
What you need to do, is instruct the loader (check [Man7]: LD.SO(8) for more details) where to look for "your" OpenSSL libs (which are located under /usr/local/ssl/lib). One way of doing that is adding their path in ${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} env var (before building Python):
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/ssl/lib
./configure
make
make install
You might also want to take a look at [Python.Docs]: Configure Python - Libraries options (--with-openssl, --with-openssl-rpath).
Check [SO]: How to enable FIPS mode for libcrypto and libssl packaged with Python? (#CristiFati's answer) for details on a wider problem (remotely) related to yours.

What I have done to fix this :
./configure --with-ssl=./libssl --prefix=/subsystem
sed -i 's!^RUNSHARED=!RUNSHARED=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/own/libssl/lib!' Makefile
make
make install
Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH with export was not sufficient

With Python-3.6.5 and openssl-1.1.0h i get stuck in the same problem. I have uncomment _socket socketmodule.c.

How to add new default packages to virtualenv?

When I create a virtualenv, it installs setuptools and pip. Is it possible to add new packages to this list?
Example use cases:
Following this solution to use ipython in virtualenv (from this question) requires installing ipython in every virtualenv (unless I allow system-site-packages).
Or if I'm doing a only flask/pygame/framework development, I'd want it in every virtualenv.

I took a different approach from what is chosen as the correct answer.
I chose I directory, like ~/.virtualenv/deps and installed packages in there by doing
pip install -U --target ~/.virtualenv/deps ...
Next in ~/.virtualenv/postmkvirtualenv I put the following:
# find directory
SITEDIR=$(virtualenvwrapper_get_site_packages_dir)
PYVER=$(virtualenvwrapper_get_python_version)
# create new .pth file with our path depending of python version
if [[ $PYVER == 3* ]];
then
echo "$HOME/.virtualenvs/deps3/" > "$SITEDIR/extra.pth";
else
echo "$HOME/.virtualenvs/deps/" > "$SITEDIR/extra.pth";
fi
Post that basically says the same thing.

You can write a python script, say personalize_venv.py that extends the EnvBuilder class and override its post_setup() method for installing any default packages that you need.
You can get the basic example from https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html#an-example-of-extending-envbuilder.
This doesn't need a hook. Directly run the script with command line argument dirs pointing to your venv directory/directories. The hook is the post_setup() method itself of EnvBuilder class.
