pip install dependency links

Question

I am using python version 2.7 and pip version is 1.5.6.

I want to install extra libraries from url like a git repo on setup.py is being in

Answer 1

You need to make sure you include the dependency in your install_requires too.

Here's an example setup.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
from setuptools import setup

setup(
    name='foo',
    version='0.0.1',
    install_requires=[
        'balog==0.0.7'
    ],
    dependency_links=[
        'https://github.com/balanced/balog/tarball/master#egg=balog-0.0.7'
    ]
)

Here's the issue with your example setup.py:

You're missing the egg name in the dependency links you setup.

You have

https://github.com/egemsoft/esef-auth/tarball/master/#egg=1.0.0.0

You need

https://github.com/egemsoft/esef-auth/tarball/master/#egg=esef-auth-1.0.0.0
