Not able to setup the environment to run the code

[Dhandeep10]

After completing all the steps in README file, and troubleshooting some things by my self. I got the following error while running "python main.py" in terminal

NotOpenSSLWarning: urllib3 v2.0 only supports OpenSSL 1.1.1+, currently the 'ssl' module is compiled with 'LibreSSL 2.8.3'. See: https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3020
  warnings.warn(
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/dhandeepsingh/Desktop/instagraph/main.py", line 5, in <module>
    from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bs4'

How to fix this issue??

Seems like the beautifulsoup4 package was not installed. You can pip install the requirements again and check if beautifulsoup4 is installed.

It would be better if we create a virtualenv for the dependencies.

@yoheinakajima I can update the readme to add steps for creating a virtualenv if you would like.

I tried installing, but it said that it is already installed.
So any other help?

yes a virtual env would be better. Give it a try hope it will solve the issue.

@Dhandeep10 Try this steps if you are on windows:

git clone https://github.com/yoheinakajima/instagraph.git
cd instagraph
python -m venv venv
.\venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py
