Install issues – csvkit version

[jmuyskens]

The latest version of csvkit introduces breaking changes to the python API. When attempting to run clerk I got a traceback and cement.core.exc.FrameworkError: No module named py2. See here for the offending import statement. To get it to work, I installed an older version of csvkit by running pip install -I csvkit==0.9.1.

In addition, the suggested command to install from the GitHub repo did not work for me. I got an error message [email protected]:newsdev/nyt-clerk.git#egg=clerk should either be a path to a local project or a VCS url beginning with svn+, git+, hg+, or bzr+. I used pip install git+https://github.com/newsdev/nyt-clerk.git instead, which worked fine except for the above problem.
