my python package can be installed on my local conda env but can not be installed on other envs or systems

Question

I have created my own python package and uploaded it in https://test.pypi.org/ which installed and worked fine in my conda virtual environment but when I want to install it on other systems or environments, it seems that it cant install the dependencies. i get this error:

ERROR: You must give at least one requirement to install (see "pip help install")

my setup.py file is:

from setuptools import setup, find_packages

with open("README.md", "r", encoding="utf-8") as fh:
    long_description = fh.read()

setup(
    name = "mypackage",
    version = "0.0.31",
    author = "my name",
    author_email= "[email protected]",
    description = "a description",
    long_description = long_description,
    long_description_content_type = "text/markdown",
    packages = ["mypackage"],
    python_requires = ">=3.9",
    install_requires = [
        "pandas>=1.4.2",
        "pyro-api>=0.1.2",
        "pyro-ppl>=1.8.0",
        "numpy>=1.21.5",
        ],
)

I'm on Ubuntu 22.04 and using following commands to install the package:

• python setup.py sdist
• twine upload --repository testpypi dist/mypackage-0.0.31.tar.gz
• pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/mypackage

Answer 1

In the command

pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/mypackage

you provide only the index but not the requirement(s). The correct syntax is

pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ mypackage

Also with

pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ mypackage

you allowed pip to install only from test.pypi.org and there is no pandas>=1.3.3 at https://test.pypi.org/project/pandas. You need to allow pip to use pypi.org. This way:

pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple mypackage
