[brainstorm]

+1 could someone please upload st2sdk 0.3.0 to pypi.org please?

[laurianops]

have you found a solution @nmaludy ?

[laurianops]

i found a solution on the my case,
i use fedora 29, here is a solution
https://fedora.pkgs.org/29/fedora-x86_64/python2-cmd2-0.8.8-5.fc29.noarch.rpm.html

@LaurianoElmiroDuarte What kind error do you get during installation?

Do keep in mind that it's almost never recommended to install it directly into your system Python environment using sudo pip install because it could conflict with other system dependencies.

You should pretty much always use a dedicated virtual environment for it (same goes for other Python projects).

So instead of sudo pip install st2sdk you should do something like:

virtualenv --no-site-packages ~/st2sdk.venv
~/st2sdk.venv/bin/pip install st2sdk
# And then use it like this
~/st2sdk.venv/bin/st2sdk --help
...

Or you are trying to install it directly into StackStorm virtual environment (/opt/stackstorm/st2)?

[laurianops]

Ohhh perfect @Kami very good ...
but, this virtualenv its a virtual machine of python,
his is will run just Python2,7 okay ?
