Hello trimage team,
since there is no current package for NixOS, I tried to install Trimage locally to my home directory. This build however failed to start, so I share my experience here in hopes of someone knowing what I did wrong, or in explaining how else I could go about a manual installation:
I first made sure to install all dependencies; this is part of my configuration.nix package list:
# image resize for website
imagemagick
pngcrush
image_optim
jpegoptim
optipng
advancecomp
# other trimage dependencies
python311
python311Packages.pyqt5
(the packges were the most obvious matches on https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=23.05&show=python311Packages.pyqt5&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=python+qt5, for example)
I then ran the following commands to start a local copy:
git clone https://github.com/Kilian/Trimage
cd Trimage/
python setup.py build
cd bin
chmod +x ./trimage
./trimage
The installation also gave no error massages, apart from the distutils warning for python 3.12
On the last step, I got the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/sva/git/Trimage/bin/./trimage", line 19, in <module>
import trimage
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'trimage'
Is this the expected behaviour, or did I do something wrong? If it is expected, is there a different way to run it locally (from a path in the home directory, to not mangle with the NixOS root (which gave an error on the usual install command listed on the Readme))?
with regards,
Hypatia of Sva
