Issue with installation: bblfish

[AnneshaChowdhury]

Hi,
I am having a hard time with the installation of tmsc. I have been trying to get tmsc up but have been running into some problems. I am installing inside 'venv' on Windows 10.

This is the snippet of the error I have been getting.

   pyuast.cc

Any help is appreciated!

Hi @AnneshaChowdhury !

Thanks for reporting. Indeed, Windows is our punishment for our software development sins.

This is clearly a problem with installing the Babelfish python client. Can you please file the very same report to
https://github.com/bblfsh/client-python (about problems with pip3 install bblfsh)?

I am closing the original issue as unrelated.

@AnneshaChowdhury I've just opened the issue for you: bblfsh/python-client#114

@vmarkovtsev Thanks for your response, Yeah , I have tried for few hours on my Windows machine but no luck.
@smola Appreciate your help.

@vmarkovtsev - I have a question, will tmsc work on private source-code repositories? And if it does, how do we configure that?

[vmarkovtsev]

It takes any Git URL or file system path. If the ssh remote does not work for you then the second option will definitely work.
