Can the eikon python api be made available to download rather than through pip install?

probinson

In order to get started with Eikon Python API, we must install the eikon python package using the following

pip install eikon

If you are behind a firewall, this can present difficulties. Can Refinitiv make the eikon python package available to download in a way that it can be installed without the python interpreter needing to download additional content.

Note I have looked at the following link, and these download files do not solve the problem, as installing them prompts the python interpreter to download other files

https://pypi.org/project/eikon/#files

Thanks in advance

Hi @probinson,

Using pip will attempt to resolve all dependencies. The Eikon package has many dependencies and as you discovered will try to install them. I can't think of another way other than to download those dependencies that are failing as you did with the Eikon package and install them individually. The Eikon package doesn't include all the separate dependencies as downloadable modules.
