docopt 0.6.2 available for python3.3

[glucksfall]

Hello,

I installed padmet in a virtual enviroment, but I couldn't install docopt 0.6.2 because is available for python3.3 and below. Also, it seems docopt is not under maintenance, and a derivative project is here https://github.com/jazzband/docopt-ng

Best!

Hello @glucksfall,

Just to be sure that I understand correctly your issue: you try to install padmet on a virtual environment on Python 3.3 and it failed due to docopt?

If yes, it is expected due to dependencies issues, padmet is not usable on python 3.3. Furthermore there will be issue for versions below 3.6 (especially linked to biopython).
These specificities about python version were not documented in the readme so I add a message in the readme about python version (782f5e7).

Thanks for the link to docopt-ng. I will look into it and maybe I will add it but I have to check if it does not cause issue with other packages (that still use docopt).

Sorry for the delay to answer and thank your for your feedback!

Hello @ArnaudBelcour

Thank you for your reply. No worries about the delay and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

Here is the thing. I tried to install docopt (and padmet) with pip3 and failed because docopt is only available for python3.3 and below (https://pypi.org/project/docopt/). I use ubuntu 20.04/python3.8.

For sure that docopt-ng will break things, but otherwise, docopt should be installed from source (https://github.com/docopt/docopt). I tested installing docopt from source and it worked.

Hope this information is helpful.

Best regards!
