unable to install kivy-garden packages

[DanielK]

I followed the instructions (https://github.com/kivy/kivy/wiki/Using-Kivy-with-an-existing-Python-installation-on-Windows-(64-or-32-bit)) to get kivy 1.8.0 integrated with my standard python.

This seemed to be successful, I could run run some of my scripts.

Then I tried to install some of the garden modules (http://kivy.org/docs/api-kivy.garden.html).

I started with:

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy> pip.exe install -U kivy-garden

Requirement already up-to-date: kivy-garden in c:\python27\lib\site-packages

Requirement already up-to-date: requests in c:\python27\lib\site-packages (from kivy-garden)

Cleaning up...

Looks ok to me, but the next step fails:

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy> garden install filebrowser

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy>python.exe C:\Python27\Scripts\garden install filebrowser

python.exe: can't open file 'C:\Python27\Scripts\garden': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

PS C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy>

In comparison to the standalone kivy distribution I recognised, that the garden-script was indeed missing, and I copied it from the standalone distribution.

Now I get:

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy> garden install filebrowser

 

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy>python.exe C:\Python27\Scripts\garden install filebrowser

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\Python27\Scripts\garden", line 5, in <module>

    pkg_resources.run_script('Kivy-Garden==0.1.1', 'garden')

  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pkg_resources.py", line 488, in run_script

    self.require(requires)[0].run_script(script_name, ns)

  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pkg_resources.py", line 1348, in run_script

    raise ResolutionError("No script named %r" % script_name)

pkg_resources.ResolutionError: No script named 'garden'

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy>

I also tried the garden.bat:

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy> garden.bat install filebrowser

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\kivy>python.exe C:\Python27\Scripts\garden install filebrowser

Traceback (most recent call last):

    pkg_resources.run_script('Kivy-Garden==0.1.1', 'garden')

Help is welcome!

First, what did you copy from the standalone dist? Both garden and garden.bat?

What happens if you try to uninstall garden and reinstall instead of upgrade?

Finally, try downloading the zip from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/kivy-garden/0.1.1 directly and run setup.py on it.

I copied just garden (not garden.bat, that was already there).

Following your suggestions.

Seems to work, thank you!
