Ubuntu 20.04: Errors on Install about openbbterminal

[DidierRLopes]

Exactly correct @foranpower ,

The xlwings and appscript aren't necessary. A fixed and improved requirements.txt list is coming soon.

Regarding the "menus missing" that made me giggle :) It's one of those things where you try to do something fancy but it may not be that intuitive. The reason why the other menus don't appear is because you don't have a loaded stock ticker, meaning that you can only "discover new stocks", understand some "sentiment of the market".

If you do load -t GME you'll be able to see all the menu, and as soon as you go into one of these menus, the ticker GME will be pre-loaded.

TL;DR: You're all set, enjoy!

This is some issue with appscript. Delete it from the requirements and install again. It shouldn't be necessary to run it, or so i heard. Grüße aus Köln :)

This is probably obvious to you already, but it wasn't for me on linux.
-> from: requirement.txt
->delete: #//*not sure if these are necessary, but they were giving me errors in linux. *Figured out thanks to luger1 above.
-->xlwings
-->appscript

cd the gamestonk terminal directory (or right click inside the folder and click open in terminal)
type in terminal: python gamestonk_terminal.py

Still, seems some menus are missing. Maybe xlwings was necessary.

I'm going to close this now. Lots has changed since this was opened. You can run git checkout main, git pull main to fetch the latest and attempt to reinstall.

The project has been testest to work with Pythons 3.6.8, 3.7 and 3.8. Tensorflow doesn't support python 3.9 yet.

We are using poetry to manage the project and that is one option for installing. The other is to install with the requirements.txt. Feel free to use any virtual environment you want.

Just make sure to run pip install --upgrade pip as that was affecting some people as tensorflow requires pip >= 2.19 (or something like that).

We also have a dockerfile if you would prefer to use docker. We will also soon be offering an "official image" on dockerhub.

Oh and Windows is only supported with docker because pystan is not available for windows (officially).

If you are having problems please open a new issue =).
