Installation problem Python 3.11.2

[KristjanESPERANTO]

I can't install the module with Python 3.11.2 under Debian 12.

Do you have an idea how to solve it?

$ python -V

python 2.7 works, but that is deprecated.

If you really need it NOW here is a workaround for python 3.10 ( 🤣 ) :

1. clone and build this repository: git clone https://github.com/opening-hours/pyopening_hours
2. cd pyopening_hours/
3. make dependencies-get
4. run npm install optimist
5. download this file https://github.com/opening-hours/opening_hours.js/blob/ce274d2d485f74bd5ab222b45a11f6f4b4ed67b8/scripts/interactive_testing.js to node_modules/opening_hours/
6. copy the folder build from node_modules/opening_hours/ one hierarchy up directly into node_modules: cp -r node_modules/opening_hours/build node_modules/
7. copy the folder node_modules to pyopening_hours/ (replacing the existing one): cp -r node_modules pyopening_hours/
8. copy the folder pyopening_hours (containing OpeningHours.py and node_modules/) to your site-packages/ folder or wherever your python libs are located

done

@SlowMo24: Nice! It looks to me like you found the cause. I don't get it yet. Can you create a PR?

[SlowMo24]

The following is no critique! I think we should thank the people who offered these tools they created in their free time and is only healthy if they now follow new endeavours.

---

I don't think I found the cause. This module has not been maintained for a while and has gotten out of touch with the dependency. I found a work around by reverting the dependency to an earlier status as the package expects it.

I think this package will need a rework to get back in line with the https://github.com/opening-hours/opening_hours.js/ . But I have too little experience with the way POPEN is used here and seeing this comment #4 (comment) it seems implausible that that will happen here.

I will try KOpeninghours and see how far I can get: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:opening_hours#Python

//edit: not far (not even installation) but this one seems to work: https://pypi.org/project/opening-hours-py/
