I'm trying to install a modified python package from github. When I try to install using python3 setup.py install I'm getting this error

    Python recognizes 'obspy.taup.tests.data.TauP_test_data' as an importable package,
    but it is not listed in the `packages` configuration of setuptools.

    'obspy.taup.tests.data.TauP_test_data' has been automatically added to the distribution only
    because it may contain data files, but this behavior is likely to change
    in future versions of setuptools (and therefore is considered deprecated).

    Please make sure that 'obspy.taup.tests.data.TauP_test_data' is included as a package by using
    the `packages` configuration field or the proper discovery methods
    (for example by using `find_namespace_packages(...)`/`find_namespace:`
    instead of `find_packages(...)`/`find:`).

    You can read more about "package discovery" and "data files" on setuptools
    documentation page.

      Meanwhile you can try the legacy behavior by setting an

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building editable for obspy

ERROR: Could not build wheels for obspy, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I need this particular modified module,here is the github repo link: https://github.com/isas-yamamoto/obspy/tree/feature/alsep_format_support

Note: this modified repo is many commits behind the master of the original repo

    Did you read the error? Building the repo means compiling some (presumably C or C++) code, and you need Visual Studio for that. – MattDMo Sep 17 '22 at 21:47
  • @MattDMo I'm getting the same errors as above this time except for the Microsoft Visual C C++ toolchain, they are gone, but the rest are the same. A new error that I encountered was this: error: command 'cl.exe' failed: None – Maaz Shahid Sep 17 '22 at 22:25
  • Have you attempted this in a new virtual environment? I just attempted this in command prompt `py -m venv py_venv && .\py_venv\Scripts\activate.bat && py -m pip install -e git+https://github.com/isas-yamamoto/obspy.git#egg=obspy` and did not get the same errors – kyrlon Sep 17 '22 at 22:32
  • @kyrlon I ran the code that you provided above and it worked and this is the message I'm getting: `Successfully installed certifi-2022.9.14 charset-normalizer-2.1.1 contourpy-1.0.5 cycler-0.11.0....... numpy-1.23.3 obspy-1.3.0.post0+20.g5a3b135ba1.isas.yamamoto.feature.apollo packaging-21.3 pillow-9.2.0 pyparsing-3.0.9 python-dateutil-2.8.2 requests-2.28.1 scipy-1.9.1 six-1.16.0 sqlalchemy-1.4.41 urllib3-1.26.12`, but when I'm importing it "from obspy import read" it says "no module obspy found" found. Can you tell me if I'm doing something wrong? – Maaz Shahid Sep 18 '22 at 13:31
  • @kyrlon pip list shows this, `1.3.0.post0+20.g5a3b135ba1.isas.yamamoto.feature.apollo C:\Users\Maaz Shahid\py_venv\src\obspy` – Maaz Shahid Sep 18 '22 at 13:42
  • @MaazShahid what is your code editor? Are you using VS Code? – kyrlon Sep 18 '22 at 13:42

It looks like you are pip installing everything to your main python on your windows machine and packages might have conflicting dependencies. Expanding on my comment in the original post, I would suggest using virtual environments when installing python modules to avoid such headaches. Here is a link that shows multiple ways to isolate a virtual environment. There is also conda that predates pip that has isolation and python module management all in one, but for this error you are seeing I will give an example with python module venv. For now I can give an example using command prompt. Open command prompt and make a new folder that is easily accessible in your file explorer:

C:\Users\kyrlon>cd Documents
C:\Users\kyrlon\Documents>mkdir obspy_example && cd obspy_example
C:\Users\kyrlon\Documents\obspy_example>

Next make a python virtual environment in this directory:

py -m venv py_venv && .\py_venv\Scripts\activate.bat && py -m pip install -e git+https://github.com/isas-yamamoto/obspy.git#egg=obspy

This directory now contains an isolated Python. When the name of the Python environment appears in (parenthesis), you know you're in it:

(py_venv) C:\Users\kyrlon\Documents\obspy_example>

Create a file demo_obspy.py in the same directory. If it is difficult to search for your current directory, you can open file explorer from command prompt:

(py_venv) C:\Users\kyrlon\Documents\obspy_example> explorer .

Next open with a code editor of choice:

from obspy import read

print("hello for obspy")

Now back in your command prompt, run python as such:

(py_venv) C:\Users\kyrlon\Documents\obspy_example> py demo_obspy.py

You should now have output:

hello for obspy

with no errors

    I had issues with my python, so I uninstalled python 3.10 and reinstalled python 3.9. It now works perfectly. Thank you. – Maaz Shahid Sep 18 '22 at 19:38
