Error while installing package developed with cliff - python

I wrote a command line tool with cliff 2.3.0, tested on my laptop (Mac, Python 2.7.12). When I was tried to install it (python setup.py install) on a server (Linux, Python 2.7.2), I encountered this error:
Installed /private/tmp/easy_install-EGMO15/cliff-2.3.0/pbr-1.10.0-py2.7.egg

Any suggestions?

It looks like your server may have a (much) older version of the setuptools package installed (which provides the pkg_resources module). The evaluate_marker method looks as if it first showed up at the end of 2014, so if you're using an older system it is possible that method is not available.
Depending on your environment, you may be able to simply pip install -U setuptools, or you may need to see if your distribution has a newer isntallable package available.
If you can update your question to include details about your server's operating environment (what distribution and version are you running? What version of Python? What version of setuptools?), we can probably provide a more complete answer.
Update
For example, Ubuntu 12.04 only has setuptools 0.6, and the pkg_resources module (which is packaged in the python-pkg-resources package) does not have the evaluate_marker method:
# python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Jun 22 2015, 19:33:41)
[GCC 4.6.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pkg_resources
>>> pkg_resources.evaluate_marker
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'evaluate_marker'
In this environment, I can install pip:
# apt-get install python-pip
And then upgrade the installed version of setuptools:
# pip install -U setuptools
And now:
# python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Jun 22 2015, 19:33:41)
[GCC 4.6.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pkg_resources
>>> pkg_resources.evaluate_marker
<function evaluate_marker at 0x1535050>
>>>
NB Upgrading distribution packages (e.g., things installed by apt-get in this example) using pip can often lead to sadness and heartache, and you are much better off if you are able to upgrade the underlying environment to one where such workarounds are not necessary. Alternatively, running your code from a Python virtual environment (so that your upgraded packages do not override system packages) is also a technically better solution.

module 'yaml' has no attribute 'FullLoader'

I am seeing the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "generateLDA.py", line 14, in <module>
config = yaml.load(fp, Loader = yaml.FullLoader)
AttributeError: module 'yaml' has no attribute 'FullLoader'
The FullLoader class is only available in PyYAML 5.1 and later. Version 5.1 was released on March 13, 2019 and has probably not filtered down to many distributions yet.
You can check the version of PyYAML by inspecting yaml.__version__:
Python 2.7.15 (default, Oct 15 2018, 15:24:06)
[GCC 8.1.1 20180712 (Red Hat 8.1.1-5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import yaml
>>> yaml.__version__
'3.13'
If you are managing packages with pip, you can upgrade to the current release by running:
pip install -U PyYAML
In case someone wants to use older version of yaml(3.1)
import yaml
with open('filename.yaml') as parameters:
my_dict = yaml.safe_load(parameters)
I stumbled upon it while using rospy to run my packages.
pip install --ignore-installed PyYAML
sudo su
pip install --ignore-installed PyYAML -r requirements.txt
It worked perfectly for fail2ban-geo-exporter
Took hours to figure it out, now it runs under root & systemd
pip3 install -U PyYAML
worked for me on Linux machine.
if it was working earlier then please check whether the indentation of the file is somehow messed-up or not.

Modules installed in venv are not recognized

why it does not work? Django.tar.gz is straight from PyPi
if i try "python -m pip install" it works, but installs python globally.

pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available.

Figured this out. There was an systemwide alias set earlier by someone, which aliased python to a specific path like "/A/B/python", thus even while in venv used python was this one. :which python: might be misleading - id DOES NOT check for aliases, so :which python: and :python: did not pointed to the same one.

pip installed modules and alternate paths

For various reasons, I need to install a python module somewhere outside the default location. pip install --prefix would seem like the right thing, but I'm having problems:
$ pip install --prefix /tmp/foo protobuf-3.2.0-cp27-cp27mu-manylinux1_x86_64.whl
$ export PYTHONPATH=/tmp/foo/lib64/python2.7/site-packages
$ python

>>> import google.protobuf
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: No module named google.protobuf
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path.append('/tmp/foo/lib64/python2.7/site-packages')
>>> sys.path
['', '/tmp/foo/lib64/python2.7/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/python27.zip',

>>> import google.protobuf
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named google.protobuf
But if I install it in the default location (which I cannot do in production):
$ sudo pip install protobuf-3.2.0-cp27-cp27mu-manylinux1_x86_64.whl
$ python
Python 2.7.5 (default, Nov 6 2016, 00:28:07)

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import google.protobuf
>>> google.protobuf.__version__
'3.2.0'
I assume my invocation of the pip command is wrong, or there is something else I need to do to get at that module at runtime. Any advice would be much appreciated.
The best possible solution for you would be the use of "virtualenv". You can install required packages whose scope will only be limited to the virtual environment. Also it will ignore all the previously installed packages that are already in your main repository. For a quick start, follow this link: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/
Use:
pip install --ignore-installed --install-option="--prefix=$PREFIX_PATH" package_name
--ignore-installed is to force all dependencies to be reinstalled using this new prefix. This looks to be the problem you're having. You can use --install-option multiple times to add any of the options you can use with python setup.py install with --prefix.
I am not sure why you want this path to be different. You should probably initialize a virtual environment to keep your modules project specific. However, if this is necessary for your use case, do the above.

PyAPNs version 1.1.2 doesn’t have enhanced keyword?

I’m sure this is obvious, but I’m missing it. I’ve installed PyAPNs via pip:
# pip install apns
Then when I try to use the “enhanced” flag in APNs, it’s not there.
# python
Python 2.7.6 (default, Nov 11 2013, 18:34:29)
[GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-3)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from apns import APNs
>>> server = APNs(use_sandbox=True, cert_file=“/mydir/apns-dev-cert.pem", key_file=“/mydir/apns-dev-key.pem", enhanced=True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'enhanced'
>>>
And sure enough the 1.1.2 version that pip installed doesn’t have that keyword. But I thought this was the latest released version in the PyAPNs repository https://github.com/djacobs/PyAPNs.
I want to use the ‘enhanced’ keyword, for error checking. Any ideas?
Version 1.1.2 that is currently available on PyPI doesn't provide an enhanced argument for APNs class (see source).
If you want this functionality, install the module directly from github (master branch):
pip install git+https://github.com/djacobs/PyAPNs.git
Note that they haven't updated the package version in setup.py, so, if you have this module installed already, uninstall it first, then install it from github:
pip uninstall apns
pip install git+https://github.com/djacobs/PyAPNs.git
if you want more error-free version, you may try this fork
pip install git+https://github.com/jimhorng/PyAPNs.git
which resolved errors from long idle connections:

How to install libgit2/pygit2 into virtualenv? (Ubuntu)

I have tried dulwich, and GitPython - neither of which seem mature. Now I am trying to install libgit2/pygit2. I have successfully installed them into the host packages environment, but now I need to get them installed in the virtualenv of the app I am building.
Python 2.7.3 (default, Sep 26 2013, 20:03:06)
[GCC 4.6.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pygit2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pygit2/__init__.py", line 32, in <module>
import _pygit2
ImportError: libgit2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
>>>
As you can see the current issue seems to be that the globally installed libgit2.so.0 cannot be found from within the virtualenv. Fair enough, that is what virtualenv is about after all,, sandboxing. So how do I go about linking/symlinking/building a version/copy of the libgit2.so for the virtualenv ?
I found the following script in a Gist that - when run while logged into a virtualenv -- will install the current libgit2/pygit2 together there in the venv.
https://gist.github.com/olivier-m/5755638
One note of caution, update the version numbers for both libraries to the same most recent version ( 0.20.0 at this time of writing ).
