I see in your log that you are using 32 bits Python. You must install a 64 bits version (https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-368/). |
Thank you for getting back to me. I installed Python 3.8 (x64), but install still fails. Which Python versions are compatible? Complete log again:
|
Can you try with the 3.6.x?? (https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-368/). |
Also installed Python 3.6.8 (x64), and there ingenialink installs. So there are no newer binary wheels available? Considering Python 3.6.8 is from December 2018 it seems reasonable to support Python 3.8. |
Okey, then the problem is not coming from the Python version at all. As you may know, ingenialink-python is a wrapper from a C library called ingenialink. That should fix your problems. |
I don't understand your comment. I am quite certain that with the install from Python 3.6 (x64) no compilation is done. Instead, a precompiled (-ish) binary wheel (*.whl) file is downloaded from pypi.org. The reason the installation succeeds for Python 3.6 and fails for 3.8 is pypi.org does not have a suitable binary for that version. Attached is the verbose log of If I try to install on Python 3.6 while explicitly skipping the binaries, the install fails again with the same familiar error:
So, hence my request. You've already uploaded binaries for Python 3.6 (x64), let's then also make binaries for later versions. |
I've finally managed to build it myself. I needed to install the platform toolset v140 specifically, and it only works for x64 Python editions. Attached is a .whl for anyone who wants it: ingenialink-5.1.0-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.zip In the meantime, are you considering updating the wheels on PyPi.org? |
I figured this deserves it's own issue.
Installation with on Windows fails (output below).
The documentation mentions a binary wheel that will be downloaded, but the installer complains about build errors, which shouldn't happen if there is no need to build anything.
