Installation with pip3

Hi,

I installed kafka-influxdb within my own VMs with python2 successfully. But then, when I try to install in another environment, I directly downloaded the master branch, unzip, and try to run “pip3 install kafka-influxdb”, it tells:

[root@dhcp-10-173-66-167 kafka-influxdb-master]# pip3 install kafka_influxdb Collecting kafka_influxdb Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement kafka_influxdb (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for kafka_influxdb

I checked with my pip3 version: [root@dhcp-10-173-66-167 kafka_influxdb]# pip3 install --upgrade pip Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages You have mail in /var/spool/mail/root [root@dhcp-10-173-66-167 kafka_influxdb]# pip3 -V pip 9.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages (python 3.6)

And I’m running on CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 and Linux 3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.

Can you help me out of this? Thanks in advance!

Shawn.

Hi,

We’ve figured out the pip problem with network proxy. Now I’m able to use pip install kafka_influxdb. Yeah!

Thanks for your help.

Yup, I can see some progress. 🤠 Looks like you’re doing the installation on this server entirely offline, so all packages have to be available from your local machine.

On a machine with internet:

mkdir kafka_influxdb
cd kafka_influxdb
pip3 download kafka_influxdb

This will create a folder that you can zip and copy to the server. There, you should be able to unzip it and install again:

pip3 install --no-index --find-links /path/to/kafka_influxdb/ kafka_influxdb

I haven’t tested that, though but it should roughly be what you need to do. Reference: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14447068/270334
