Install python package from svn using dependency_links in setup.py

Question

I am trying to install hw3 package which has a dependency package hw2. My setup.py looks as follows -

setup(
    name='hw3',
    version='0.1',
    packages = find_packages(),
    install_requires = 'hw2',
    dependency_links = [
        r'svn+https://server.local/svn/Libraries/testPkg2/trunk#egg=hw2'
    ]
)

I get the following error when I run python setup.py install in windows cmd

svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn+https://server.local/svn/Libraries/testPkg2/trunk'
svn: E125002: Undefined tunnel scheme 'https'

Alternatively, I have requirements.txt which is as follows

svn+https://server.local/svn/Libraries/testPkg2/trunk#egg=hw2

If I run pip install -r requirements.txt, it installs hw2 package successfully.

My svn version is

svn, version 1.9.7 (r1800392) compiled Aug 8 2017, 22:14:48 on x86-microsoft-windows

how to resolve this error? Thanks

I am getting the same error for 'http' and 'svn'.

For 'ssh' it is

svn: E170012: Can't create tunnel
svn: E720002: Can't create tunnel: The system cannot find the file specified.

have you tried changing it to `http` that could be the problem, also not sure about authentication but perhaps you need to `ssh` — gold_cy, Sep 15 '17 at 00:57
@aws_apprentice i tried ssh and http as well and got similar error — gdRow, Sep 15 '17 at 16:00

Maybe try it directly with the install_requires option (requires pip>=18.1):

setup(
    name='hw3',
    version='0.1',
    packages = find_packages(),
    install_requires = ['hw2@svn+https://server.local/svn/Libraries/testPkg2/trunk#egg=hw2'],
)
