Chatterbot: Error Installing on mac OS x (Command "python setup.py egg_info")

[zacharyyzhou]

I am having the same issue someone else raised on this forum, but the solution on his post didn't work for me (i.e., I tried both sudo and pip install ruamel.yaml --upgrade.

Same error with chatterbot as well.

I don't have this issue on MacOS High Sierra with Python 3.6.2
Are you using virtualenv?

[zacharyyzhou]

I am using MacOS High Sierra with Python 3.6.3. I don't know what virtualenv is so I'm probably not using it.

[mikekeda]

but in your logs python2.7 and without virtualenv python 2 will be used by default
P.S. https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/

Hi @zacharyyzhou by looking into trace log, the installation failed unable to fetch ruamel requirement from pip, to avoid before installing chatterbot install ruamel.

pip install ruamel.yaml --upgrade

The similar issue #913 and https://github.com/gunthercox/ChatterBot/issues/1055

[zacharyyzhou]

I installed virtualenv, but I don't know how to change using python 2 by default. I tried typing python3 and changing the path using
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6.3/bin:${PATH}"
export PATH

but my version is still 2.7.10 (found out using python --version)

don't know what to do after that since install command won't work now

[zacharyyzhou]

I think I figured out how to use virtualenv since I got chatterbot to work. Thanks for the help everyone!

[vkosuri]

Glad to here that, could please you post your resolution steps, this might useful to resolve issues very quickly

[zacharyyzhou]

Yes. After installing virtualenv by following the published documentation, I downloaded chatterbot into its bin folder. I believe I typed env/bin/pip install chatterbot. I have no idea what version of python was used to install it, but the download was successful, and I was able to run the bot. A link I found helpful is the following: https://www.dabapps.com/blog/introduction-to-pip-and-virtualenv-python/

[juusujanar]

I got the same error when running with pip, which uses Python2 by default. I used pip3 to install the chatterbot for Python3 and that was successful.

This is the error I' getting installing flask-mysqldb in virtualenv and installed all the above related files[ip install ruamel.yaml --upgrade],

which throw error,but still i'm unable to get rid of this error
please help out with this issue

[mikekeda]

@darshanddd7 it's not related to ChatterBot

[darshanddd7]

@mikekeda
I didn't get ...what about the error code where do I get the solution

[mikekeda]

@darshanddd7 you can use google, check the documentation, post an issue at flask-mysqldb

In general I think you don't have mysqlclient-python installed. I checked the flask-mysqldb, last code update was 2 years ago, so it could be the reason too.

Why to not use sqlalchemy instead?

[eraseandinstall]

I got the same error when running with pip, which uses Python2 by default. I used pip3 to install the chatterbot for Python3 and that was successful.

Holy hell thank you.
