cant run rawdog on windows.

[thelege2nd]

I am using Python 3.12.2

I ran pip install rawdog-ai

then I initially get this error when I run rawdog

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 198, in _run_module_as_main
File "", line 88, in run_code
File "C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\site-packages\rawdog_main.py", line 4, in
import readline
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'readline'

I installed pip install pyreadline

Now I'm getting this error

try pip install pyreadline3 instead - sorry this should be fixed already on the github version of the code, but hasn't yet been updated on PyPI

[biobootloader]

it's updated on PyPI now! closing this as it should be fixed, please reopen if you experience any more issues.

So I ran CMD with admin privilege. It worked but it's showing that fatal error. is this normal? Should I still pip install pyreadline3??

I have had the same issue. I had exactly the same error as the other guy, .... tried to manually import readline ... the same problem ... tried to import pyreadline ... again ... luckily I have seen this closed message ... so I imported the pyreadline3. And finally. The Windows installation is a pain, and after all these troubles - it cost me a significant amount of time - I am now rather cautious about the product. ... but thanks anyway ...

@miraculix95 how did you install rawdog? with pip install rawdog-ai or by cloning this repo?

[miraculix95]

With pip install rawdog-ai

[miraculix95]

One information I found missing as well: What Python versions are allowed? Is Python 3.12. allowed?
What is the ~ directory for the config file in the context of a windows installation?

[biobootloader]

Ah, thanks there was an issue with requirements setup, fixed by @jakethekoenig here: #88

Python 3.12 should work! We'll add which versions work, but I'd assume 3.10+

The ~ directory on windows should be something like C:\Users\username

Thanks a lot
