How do I properly install Nethack Learning Environment?

Question

Trying to install Nethack Learning Environment (nle) according to their github: https://github.com/facebookresearch/nle

I am running windows 10 x64. I successfully installed all required packages (conda, cmake, cuda, gym, stable-baselines3, even graphviz which someone online said would help) and still return an error when I execute the following:

(nle) C:\Users\g>pip install nle

I get the following error:

 Collecting nle

  Installing build dependencies ... done
  Getting requirements to build wheel ... error
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

I have even tried installing without the conda environment, via

C:\Users\g>pip install nle

Which returns the following error:

It then appears to retry installing the package and of course gets stuck at the same point, spitting out the same error.

List of other commands I have tried:

pip install --no-cache-dir nle 
pip install ez_setup
pip install --upgrade setuptools

Results:

Same error as before, all three times

The exception tells you that the install process is trying to run a program (and the program doesn't exist -- at least, not under the stated name). Have you looked at the lines of source in the stack trace to figure out what it's trying to run? — Charles Duffy, Sep 24 '22 at 23:10
Also, even though you've _installed_ `cmake` &c., make sure they actually run. `cmake --version` should work, f/e. — Charles Duffy, Sep 24 '22 at 23:12
And, really, just _read through_ https://github.com/facebookresearch/nle/blob/main/setup.py. You'll see it trying to call lots of programs -- `git`, `ninja`, and others. — Charles Duffy, Sep 24 '22 at 23:12
The other thing, though -- that setup.py lists the supported operating systems, _and Windows isn't one of them_; only "Operating System :: POSIX :: Linux" and "Operating System :: MacOS". — Charles Duffy, Sep 24 '22 at 23:14
Please edit the question to limit it to a specific problem with enough detail to identify an adequate answer. — Community, Sep 25 '22 at 11:03
