Kernel not Installing

[mrdevlar]

Hi!

I've been trying to install imongo-kernel and while the pip install is successful, it does not seem to install the kernel into jupyter.

The jupyter kernelspec list command does not return imongo among the installed kernels.

I've tried the installation on both Windows and Mac. Environment: Python3 3.6.2 (Mac) and 3.6.1 (Win) and Jupyter is version 4.3.0

Any idea of what might be going on? Is there anything else I could do to troubleshoot this?

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. It seems there's a problem with setup.py. I will try to fix it, but in the mean time try installing the package by doing the following:

$ git clone https://github.com/gusutabopb/imongo
$ cd imongo
$ python setup.py install

Hi, I tried to install with the code you provide above, but it works partially.

doesn't work on: ubuntu 16.04 on aws, python 3.6.4 but works on: mac, python 3.6.4 (It was awesome!!!)

jupyter kernelspec list doesn't return imongo.

Hope for your help! Thanks!

Thanks for the workaround, this works for macos 10.14 python 3.7.

What is the status on the fix? Maybe add the workaround as the preferred way of installing the kernel in the README could help new users set it up in the mean time?

Works great. Until the fix, this should be included in README.md. Thanks!

@gusutabopb Just did a quick PR to add this in the doc

Had the same problem in ubuntu 18.04 and python3. setup.py workaround works fine.

Please add this workaround in README file.
