New to Python and Scrapy. I need these modules apparently to run scrapy properly. I downloaded Zope interface as suggested and have been attempting to install using easy_install as per instructions on Scrapy. I’m running Windows 7 64 and first downloaded the 64 bit version of Pyton 2.7 and all modules including Zope. That didn’t work, so I unistalled everything and downloaded the 32 bit versions, but I’m having the same problem. Clearly, I’m doing something very basic incorrectly. Would appreciate assistance.
This is what happens:
C:>easy_install zope.interface-4.0.3-py2.7-win32.egg
I get a whole bunch of results (which stackoverflow doesn’t let me copy/paste even though I’m properly formatting it as code) that says at the end:
No local packages or download links found for zope.interface-4.0.3-py2.7-win32.egg
I know I need zope, because when I try and run srapy, I receive the following error (also other results):
C:>scrapy shell http://www.yahoo.com
raise ImportError(required + ": no module named zope.interface.")
ImportError: Twisted requires zope.interface 3.6.0 or later: no module named zope.interface.
As I said, I’m real new at this and having a tough time with all the modules and packages needed to get going.
easy_install and pip install take package names, not the filename.
so the correct invocation would be
which will fetch the latest version. If you specifically want that version
You can usually find package names by googling, eg. pypi zope interface
