install tui with pip in archlinux

[cirrusUK]

Using pip install aria2p tui in virtualenv does not work for me it complains the deps for top are not installed when pip clearly shows tui 1.1.1 is installed , installing python-asciimatics and aria2p from AUR rectifies matters

[pawamoy]

It's because it's pip install aria2p[tui], not pip install aria2p tui :)

[NightMachinery]

It doesn't for me either (macOS):

pip install 'aria2p[tui]'

The top-interface dependencies are not installed. Try running `pip install aria2p[tui]` to install them.

@pawamoy nope

when launching
The top-interface dependencies are not installed. Try running pip install aria2p[tui] to install them.

as mentioned installing python-asciimatics and aria2p outwith pip works

[pawamoy]

@cirrusUK try wrapping it in quotes, it seems zsh is trying to do smart things with the brackets: pip install 'aria2p[tui]'

Also the tui package is absolutely not relevant here. The bracket syntax for pip install means "install extras designated by the tui group"

And someone added aria2p in AUR if you want! EDIT: sorry I see you already mentioned it 🙂

[pawamoy]

@NightMachinary, I will investigate later with you on MacOS

[cirrusUK]

pawamoy Regards it was indeed zsh being funky, should i close or leave open until the similar issue on OSX is rectified ?

[pawamoy]

@cirrusUK great 🎉 ! Yes, leave it open, we'll close it once it's working for @NightMachinary as well 🙂

[pawamoy]

@NightMachinary could you try something?

In /Users/evar/anaconda/lib/python3.7/site-packages/aria2p/cli.py, at the beginning change

try:
    from .interface import Interface
except ImportError:
    Interface = None

to

from .interface import Interface

Then run aria2p again and paste the output here.

[pawamoy]

Ha! Looks like the asciimatics version is too old! Try to upgrade it. Not sure why 1.7.2 was installed instead of 1.11.0. I'll update the version range for this dependency.

[NightMachinery]

@pawamoy The upgrade indeed solved the error messages, but running

aac () {
    aria2p --secret "$ARIA_SECRET" "$@"
}
aac top

just exits 1 without printing anything. aac show:

[pawamoy]

Can you run it again with -L TRACE -P aria2p.log and paste the logs here? Thank you very much for following up with me by the way 🙂

[pawamoy]

Closing because the original issue is fixed, but we can still try and resolve yours @NightMachinary
