Trouble installing a plugin

[angus]

Hello,

I am having issues installing the plug in listed below. I attempted the install instructions on their readme but it seems some of the files are missing. It may also be that i have made a mistake. Can someone assist me?

The Plugin
https://github.com/thecodeteam/nagios-unity

The error i am getting at install:
No local packages or download links found for docopt>=0.6.2
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('docopt>=0.6.2')

Thanks.

@angus, Have you used the pip instructions or the git instructions to install the plugin? What is the version of your OS?

[angus]

I used the python setup below. I manually download the package and unzipped it in the /tmp dir. I am using Centos. I am not familiar with the PIP install options. Should i investigate PIP and go that route?
$ cd nagios-unity
$ sudo python setup.py install

[npolovenko]

@angus, Not really, I only asked that so I could go the same route and try to reproduce the problem.
You should install the docopt package:

Code: Select all

pip install docopt==0.6.2

If you don't have pip you need to install it:

Code: Select all

easy_install pip

Let me know how it goes.

Once I installed via PIP, i attempt to use the commands but i get an odd response. What is going on here?

/]# nagios-unity --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/nagios-unity", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2655, in <module>

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 546, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: urllib3>=1.21.1


Thanks.

@angus, You may still be missing some of the required modules. Please run this command:

Code: Select all

pip install urllib3

I installed the plugin with one command:

Code: Select all

 pip install nagios-unity

And it seemed like python automatically downloaded all the dependent packages for me.
So then i ran:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/nagios-unity -help

And haven't gotten any errors.

[angus]

Even after performing those commands, i still have the same issue.

~]# /usr/bin/nagios-unity -help
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/nagios-unity", line 5, in <module>

raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: urllib3>=1.21.1

[angus]

I removed the two packages, urllib3 and nagios-unity, and reinstalled them. now i get a new set of errors.

/]# nagios-unity
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/nagios-unity", line 7, in <module>

Thanks.

[angus]

I installed python-argparse manually and am now presented with the following:

]# /usr/bin/nagios-unity -help
Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks.

Thanks for posting the errors, but since this isn't a plugin available in our nagios-plugins package.

It's probably best if you report these issues to the maintainer of this plugin.

The last commit was in Dec 2017, so they seem fairly on point in terms of updates.
