Unable to install package from private repository

[clayk]

I am attempting to install from a private repository. The output indicates the package and dependencies were installed but when pipenv is "Locking [packages] dependencies…"

I receive an error indicating: pip.exceptions.InstallationError: Could not detect requirement name, please specify one with #egg=

Describe your environment

1. macOS 10.13.2
2. Python version: Python 3.6.3
3. Pipenv version: pipenv, version 9.0.3

Expected result

I am expecting for the package to install and the lockfile to be written.

Actual result

Locking [dev-packages] dependencies…
Locking [packages] dependencies…

Steps to replicate

execute pipenv install -e git+ssh://path/to/private/Redacted.git@v1.1.8#egg=privatepackagename

I just started seeing this problem as well, but when I update the package rather than when I'm installing it.

In the Pipfile I have an entry like:

mypkg = {git = "file:///some/path/to/working/dir", editable = true, subdirectory = "inside/workdir"}

when I run pipenv update mypkg the package gets uninstalled and reinstalled correctly, but at the end pipenv tries to add a new entry using just part of the original one, and in the Pipfile I get:

mypkg = {git = "file:///some/path/to/working/dir", editable = true, subdirectory = "inside/workdir"}
"a65c66e" = {path = "git+file:///some/path/to/working/dir", editable = true}

As you can see there's no #egg because the mypkg name is lost, and no subdirectory.

I'm sure it used to work.

Now I have to manually remove that additional line to keep my Pipfile clean, fortunately the update works so I can keep on until this is fixed

[hcoura]

I am also seeing similar problems.

When installing without the -e flag the package is installed, but if I pipenv install afterwards I get:

Installing dependencies from Pipfile.lock (5fd147)…
An error occurred while installing git+git@github.com/my/package/! Will try again.
Installing initially–failed dependencies…
Invalid requirement: 'git+git@github.com/my/package/'
It looks like a path. Does it exist ?

If I install the same package with the -e flag I get:

Locking [dev-packages] dependencies…
Locking [packages] dependencies…
fatal: repository 'git@github.com/my/package.git' does not exist

@techalchemy
To install a private github repository from pip the syntax is
pip install git+ssh://git@github.com/username/repo.git@branch#egg=blah

This worked properly with pipenv up to version 9
pipenv install git+ssh://git@github.com/username/repo.git@branch#egg=blah

but with pipenv 11
pipenv install git+ssh://git@github.com/username/repo.git@branch#egg=blah
returns with the an error for
git clone -q git@github.com/username/repo.git /tmp/temp
it's because the correct syntax should be git clone -q git@github.com:username/repo.git /tmp/temp with : and not /

[Moritz90]

@bokhi
You're close to the actual issue, but your proposed fix is incorrect. The problem is not the slash, but the fact that the leading ssh:// is omitted, causing pipenv to prompt for the ssh password for user git in my case.

I'm trying to install a package from a private Bitbucket repository from which you can only clone via SSH, not HTTPS. Pipenv tries to execute git clone -q git@host:7999/project/repo.git instead of git clone -q ssh://git@host:7999/project/repo.git.

[Moritz90]

For some reason, the stack trace is cut off. Here's what I get:

.py", line 162, in get_dependencies
    legacy_results = self.get_legacy_dependencies(ireq)
  File "/home/moritz/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pipenv/patched/piptools/repositories/pypi.py", line 199, in get_legacy_dependencies

[techalchemy]

That’s not where the problem is but it is actually really helpful. If you use the git+git@ syntax it should work until I get a fix in place

[Moritz90]

@techalchemy How do you even specify the port with the syntax git+git@host:project/repo.git? I've tried a few variants and each of them results in a similar prompt for git's password (which should not happen). The only difference is that I don't get a stacktrace after entering something incorrect.

[techalchemy]

From https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_install/#git

Here are the supported forms:
...
-e git+git@git.myproject.org:MyProject#egg=MyProject

Naturally if you use an ssh based approach you will need to have a password or a key pair for authentication. You can also use an http based approach which is not going to be impacted by this bug: git+https://git.myhost.org/myrepo.git#egg=myrepo

Please read the pip documentation if you want to know how to interact with vcs repositories.

[Moritz90]

I read the pip documentation (the exact page you posted) and it doesn't cover how to specify the port when using this type of URI, which you've suggested as a workaround. That's why I asked.

As mentioned above, HTTP access is disabled in our Bitbucket instance. My public key is correctly registered with Bitbucket and normal interaction via git and installation of the package via pip itself work perfectly fine.

But no matter what I try, I cannot get pipenv to install the package. The fact that it's asking for a password for git makes me suspect that it's always connecting to the regular SSH server on port 22, not the Bitbucket SSH server on port 7999.

Sorry if what I wrote before wasn't clear enough.

[techalchemy]

Does simply adding the port like you would to a normal url not work?

[Moritz90]

I've tried the following variations:

• git+git@host:port/project/repo.git#egg=...
• git+git@host:port:project/repo.git#egg=...

Both don't work, since in this URL scheme, everything behind the first colon seems to be interpreted as the path.

[Moritz90]

A bit of additional info:

After the initial installation attempt (pipenv install -e git+ssh://...), the Pipfile contains the following line:

package = {git = "git@host:7999/project/repo.git", editable = true}

The step Locking [packages] dependencies… then immediately fails (i.e. asks for the password).

I tried to manually change the line to the following:

package = {git = "ssh://git@host:7999/project/repo.git", editable = true}

Running pipenv install after that change results in a partial success:

Pipfile.lock not found, creating…
Locking [dev-packages] dependencies…
Locking [packages] dependencies…
Updated Pipfile.lock (28b5f3)!
Installing dependencies from Pipfile.lock (28b5f3)…

This time, it at least installs all dependencies of the package correctly before failing to install the package itself (asking for the password). pipenv run pip freeze shows that the dependencies were indeed installed correctly.

Hope that helps track down the problem.

Edit: Manually adding "ssh://" in Pipfile.lock as well makes pipenv install succeed. I guess that's my workaround for now, then.

[techalchemy]

@Moritz90 thanks for the thorough debug, I'll get a fix together for this which will be much easier because of this info

[clayk]

@techalchemy will this fix also help with the original issue filed? It seems the discussion has shifted slightly regarding SSH specifics.

[techalchemy]

yes

[techalchemy]

To clarify for everyone since there is confusion apparently:

@Moritz90 @clayk - the git+git@host syntax is the same thing as using git+ssh://git@host -- pip itself does a drop in of ssh:// and we do this as well, this is the piece of code that currently is broken when you actually do use the more verbose format.

@hcoura your issue is unrelated, you are not using the correct syntax. You are using git+git@github.com/my/package.git and you need to be using a : instead of a /: git+git@github.com:my/package.git

[hcoura]

@techalchemy I guess I wasn't explicit as I was using:

pipenv install -e git+ssh://git@github.com/my/package

Anyway, I did some more testing here(python 2.7.14 btw) and:

• pipenv install -e git+ssh://git@github.com/my/package.git@v1.0.0#egg=my_package

Install package but Lock fails, last message:

pip.exceptions.InstallationError: Command "git clone -q git@github.com/orchardmile/data-acquisition-core.git /tmp/pip-ri964xm6-export" failed with error code 128 in None

adds this line to Pipfile:

my_package = {git = "git@github.com/my/package.git.git", editable = true, ref = "v1.0.0"}

• pipenv install -e git+ssh://git@github.com/my/package.git@v1.0.0#egg=my_package

Install package but Lock fails, last message:

pip.exceptions.InstallationError: Command "git clone -q git@github.com/my/package.git /tmp/pip-ri964xm6-export" failed with error code 128 in None

adds this line to Pipfile:

my_package = {git = "git@github.com/my/package.git.git", editable = true, ref = "v1.0.0"}

• git+git@github.com:my/package.git@v1.0.0#egg=my_package

Installs fine and adds this line to Pipfile:

my_package = {git = "git@github.com:my/package.git.git", editable = true, ref = "v1.0.0"}

and everything works fine

[techalchemy]

Fixed in master, feel free to try it out and let me know if you continue to have issues

[Moritz90]

11.1.0 works for me! Thank you for the quick fix!

[safijari]

It was quite perplexing when I realized that this error was happening on my laptop but not on a fresh test VM ... thank you for the fix :)

[jamesstidard]

I'm still having a problem trying to make pipenv install from a private repository over ssh. I may have misunderstood the thread above so forgive me.

I'm currently trying to use pipenv install -e git+git@github.com:username/repo.git#egg=project which succeeds, but on actually installation I get prompted for a username and password, which seems to me like it's using https instead of ssh.

[techalchemy]

@jamesstidard it’s hard to troubleshoot a problem when you say you’ve done things right but it’s not working — please open an issue and provide logs

[araichev]

I'm also getting errors trying to install a Python package from a private (Gitlab) Git repository using Pipenv.

To be sure, this is an error in some newer version of Pipenv. The same Pipfile worked before updating to 2018.05.18 whatever that means.

The error I'm getting is:

Invalid requirement: 'git+git@github.com:somewhere.git@HEAD#egg=some-package'
It looks like a path. File 'git+git@github.com:somewhere.git@HEAD#egg=some-package' does not exist.

Now, when I start virtual environment shell and execute there:

pip install -e 'git+git@github.com:somewhere.git@HEAD#egg=some-package'

pip installs the package.

To reflect on the error:

pip._vendor.packaging.requirements.InvalidRequirement: Invalid requirement, parse error at "'+git@git'"

is a lie. This is not an invalid requirement. This is you failing to parse a valid requirement.
2. To others who suggested that it should be something else, like ssh+git@... or ssh://... and so on: no. It shouldn't. This is a supported scheme, it doesn't mean the same as ssh:// one. In fact, it's a different protocol, completely independent of SSH.

[techalchemy]

git+git uses ssh on the backend. git:// is indeed a different protocol but is mostly deprecated although still usable. Either way this is working in the release if you don’t use quotes (mainly because we don’t treat -e as a cli flag). We can take a look at stripping those too, shouldn’t be too bad.

Kind of strange to accuse an unhandled exception of lying. The exception told you what it had a problem with. Still, this feel like a step in the right direction so I’ll look at it as a positive.

[thekashifmalik]

This error is still present on the latest version of pipenv on brew. Seeing it on pipenv, version 2018.05.18

Could not detect requirement name

Even though the egg name is present in the source file.

[uranusjr]

@thekashifmalik Please be more constructive. You say it like it’s obvious and simple—why not try extracting this information yourself :)

[thekashifmalik]

@uranusjr What?

Is there other information you would like me to include?

pipenv is having trouble parsing/installing this requirement from a requirements.txt I'm trying to convert to a Pipfile.

The requirement: -e git+http://phabricator.XXX.net/diffusion/XXX/PACKAGENAME.git@0b0bca20f2a75e37633043c96871d25d328af973#egg=PACKAGENAME (names obfuscated)

The command used was pipenv install -r requirements.txt.

The error:

Could not detect requirement name for 'git+http://phabricator.local.XXX.net/diffusion/XXX/PACKAGENAME.git@0b0bca20f2a75e37633043c96871d25d328af973', please specify one with #egg=your_package_name

[uranusjr]

I mean, maybe put this in the form of a pull request? Code in GitHub issues doesn’t run as part of Pipenv.

[thekashifmalik]

@uranusjr I'm not sure I follow.

I'm suggesting that this Github issue (Unable to install package from private repository) is not resolved on the latest stable version of pipenv and so let's re-open it and solve the problem.

[thekashifmalik]

Multiple people above have also reported this. Can we re-open this issue? Is it solved on master and we just need a new PyPI release?

[techalchemy]

This issue is quite old and was reported specifically about ssh:// prefixed requirements, so is not related to general case vcs requirements. It was fixed when it was closed in the first place.

As to your specific issue, you should check closed issues if possible, we have made a lot of changes and it's hard to remember offhand which ones were done since the last release. Alternatively, you can grab the latest version of pipenv from here and see if your requirements.txt file parses correctly

[grudelsud]

hi all, I seem to have the same problem installing from a private repo with sources, and after reading this thread a few times it's not clear to me if there's any solution or workaround. here's the problem I have, starting from an empty pipfile

pipenv install -e git+git@github.server.com:org/dataround.git#egg=dataround

shows the error in console

pipenv.patched.notpip._internal.exceptions.InstallationError: Command "git clone -q ssh://git@github.server.com:org/dataround.git /var/folders/dg/ty_jfr9j40d9l0zw4gzn5x_h0000gn/T/tmpwj0_whscsource/dataround" failed with error code 128 in None

(basically having a : before the organisation name instead of a /) still it correctly installs the packages and generates the line dataround = {editable = true, git = "git@github.server.com:org/dataround.git"} in the Pipenv file

if I then

pipenv --rm
pipenv install

I have the same installation error as reported above and no package is installed (i.e. pipenv graph is completely empty).

I'm using python 3.6.5 with pip 18.0 and pipenv version 2018.7.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[techalchemy]

Yes, we have a fix in master but have not released it -- we have been bogged down with a few other issues, many apologies. If you want to confirm that the fix in the master branch works for you, that would be much appreciated!

[grudelsud]

@techalchemy thanks for feedback. I'm not sure I've done this the right way, but I've installed pipenv from git, i.e. pip3 install git+git://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git so that a pip freeze now reports pipenv==2018.7.1.dev0 (correctly matching version on master) then installed my private repo with sources, and still seeing the same error:

Locking [packages] dependencies…
[full stack trace omitted here]
pipenv.patched.notpip._internal.exceptions.InstallationError: Command "git clone -q ssh://git@github.server.com:org/dataround.git /var/folders/dg/ty_jfr9j40d9l0zw4gzn5x_h0000gn/T/tmp8dlrr0zfsource/dataround" failed with error code 128 in None

should I try something different instead?

[thehesiod]

getting same issue as @grudelsud with master version of pipenv

[techalchemy]

Ah yes, I can confirm this is an issue on master, I need to dig into what is going on here

[cspencer]

I was having the same issue described; reverting to version 11.10.4 allowed me to install the git package.

[DataGreed]

Sam problem here

[miroli]

I realize this issue is closed, but I have the exact same problem as @grudelsud (failed with error code 128 in None) and I'm on the latest version of pipenv. Not sure if a fix was deployed?

[goharattiq]

@techalchemy have we fixed the issue related to installing from the private GitHub repo?
