Instapy: Automated dependency installation

Created on 13 Dec 2018  路  9Comments  路  Source: timgrossmann/InstaPy

In order to at one point be able to do a simple setup of the whole InstaPy environment, we need to have a "one click" or "one command" dependency installation

Advantages of this feature:

  • Users won't need to install the dependencies themselves which would remove most of the problems of module not found error

Possible ways of achieving this while keeping control:

  • Setup scripts for each platform that can be triggered by a simple "double click"
  • Setup of dependencies when first starting InstaPy with a pre-step before doing the interactions
  • Might be unnecessary due to #3569

Have you considered using conda and constructor? It can produce self-contained *.sh installers for Linux/MacOS and *.exe for Windows.

@jaimergp This looks damn sexy! Thank you very much for communicating this, we'll definitely have to look into this.

Happy New Year 馃檶

@timgrossmann

Cool! If you need some help let me know!

@jaimergp Thank you, we always appreciate great people contributing to InstaPy!
Did you already join the discord channel in the Readme? 馃槈

Feel free to create a constructor.yaml file for InstaPy and test around a little bit if you're interested and have some time to spare, we'd really appreciate it.

Will be solved by @uluQulu through #3569

Ok, @timgrossmann! I am sorry but I did not receive a notification of your comment edition, so I wasn't aware of your request. Glad @uluQulu is handling that, though.

@jaimergp No worries, still thank you very much for the recommendation.
Maybe at one point you're interested in one part of InstaPy and are able to contribute there :v:
