sawtooth rest api installation error in python

What I have tried so far, Installed following ubuntu packages. 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/python-3.6
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3.6
sudo apt install build-essential automake pkg-config libtool libffi-dev
  libgmp-dev
sudo apt install libsecp256k1-dev
sudo apt-get install python3.6-dev

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 8AA7AF1F1091A5FD
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://repo.sawtooth.me/ubuntu/1.0/stable xenial universe'
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install sawtooth python3-sawtooth-sdk
sudo apt-get install python3-sawtooth-rest-api

Then in the virtualenv, i have installed pipenv install sawtooth-sdk pipenv install sawtooth_rest_api Collecting sawtooth_rest_api

Error:  An error occurred while installing sawtooth_rest_api!
    Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement sawtooth_rest_api (from versions: )
  No matching distribution found for sawtooth_rest_api

Note: I am trying to use sawtooth-marketplace, In this respoitory they have connected to the validator directly rather then submitting batch to rest api.

 from sawtooth_rest_api.messaging import Connection
 app.config.VAL_CONN = Connection(app.config.VALIDATOR_URL)

after installing python3-sawtooth-sdk as python package, couldn't import sawtoth-rest-api in python to get sawtooth-marketplace working.

Solution

  • The REST API is in package python3-sawtooth-rest-api

    I would install Sawtooth first:

    sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 8AA7AF1F1091A5FD
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://repo.sawtooth.me/ubuntu/1.0/stable xenial universe'
sudo apt update
aptitude install sawtooth python3-sawtooth-*
