Windows install fails

[tink044]

Fresh install of Windows 7, python2.6.4, gnuwin32 and git. All working i.e. %path% is correct.

pip install librabbitmq & easy_install librabbitmq result in the same thing. As does getting the latest via git (librabbitmq-master)..

I normally get "no module named librabbitmq" but if i install from git I get "no module named _librabbitmq". Basically the only files that get copied into my site-packages directory are the informational egg directory.

Any ideas?

Example of what I get with the latest version:

librabbitmq does not support Windows at this point, as it depends on a working make and configure.
I just noticed that there is a Windows classifier for the package but this must have been left there in error.

I'm not sure how much work there would be in supporting it on Windows, and I don't have much experience with that platform. I think the rabbitmq-c library itself supports Windows, but have no idea how to automatically build it (which would require a working copy of Visual Studio). The best way would probably be to create Windows binaries, but I do not currently have the time to work on this (nor do I have Windows available)

I don't know how to get windows to support it (I ran into this issue as well), but I do know that its probably not that much work.

I was able to use cmake to generate the rabbitmq dll file after just replacing unistd with winsock2.

The only remaining issue is that it wants to link against Python.lib, and I know nothing about that.
