I am trying to setup this python library and am having a very hard

  • 0

I am trying to setup this python library and am having a very hard time. I suspect it is because I am a hobby programmer, but I have successfully installed programs in the past using the command line. I am using Windows and Python 2.6.

The help that is shown below is taken from the website.

wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/y/yql/yql-0.2.tar.gz
tar -xzf yql-0.2.tar.gz
cd yql-0.2
python setup.py install

In doing a number of Google searches, it seems that this is for Unix/Mac commands. My previous process has not worked, so I am looking for all of the help I can get.

Many thanks in advance!

Here is the error:

>>> import yql
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<interactive input>", line 1, in <module>
  File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\yql-0.6-py2.5.egg\yql\__init__.py", line 201, in <module>
    class Public(object):

    Those are definately Unix/Linux commands to install python module. The installation in windows is pretty much similar. Follow the instructions given below

    1. Download the library from the website.
    2. Extract it using Winzip or WinRAR.
    3. It will create a directory with name like foo-0.2. The directory should contain a script named setup.py
    4. Now open the command prompt and cd to that directory
    5. At command prompt type following
      python setup.py install

    Also check the following link for more detailed instructions
