Connexion: pip install connexion[swagger-ui]: no matches found: connexion[swagger-ui]

Hey @mas-dse-juremigi

I wasn't able to reproduce the bug. A few questions for you:

1. Are you able to install pip extras in general?
2. Do you get the same error from pip install connexion[tests]?
3. What's the output of pip --version?

Here is what I tried:

✔ /tmp/pip > virtualenv venv
Running virtualenv with interpreter /usr/bin/python2
New python executable in /tmp/pip/venv/bin/python2
Also creating executable in /tmp/pip/venv/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pkg_resources, pip, wheel...done.
✔ /tmp/pip > . venv/bin/activate
(venv) ✔ /tmp/pip > pip install connexion[swagger-ui]

You can also just install swagger-ui-bundle to get unblocked.
Still, it's worth figuring out why the stated way in the docs didn't work for you.

We discovered a similar problem on Windows 10. On my dev mac the connexion['swagger=ui'] worked as expected.

The no matches found message probably originates from the Zsh shell. Here's the full message on my system (note the zsh: at the beginning):

zsh: no matches found: connexion[swagger-ui]

This is caused by Zsh filename generation, see man zshexpn:

FILENAME GENERATION
       If a word contains an unquoted instance of one of the  characters  `*',
       `(',  `|',  `<',  `[', or `?', it is regarded as a pattern for filename
       generation, unless the GLOB option is unset. If the EXTENDED_GLOB
       option is set, the `^' and `#' characters also denote a pattern; other‐
       wise they are not treated specially by the shell.

Basically, Zsh is trying to expand the "pattern" into filenames like connexions, connexionw, connexiona etc. Other shells (i.e. bash) either don't have that kind of expansion or have it disabled by default. For Zsh, the parameter needs to be quoted.

Looks like zsh:

```
hjacobs@mycomputer:~$ zsh
mycomputer% pip install connexion[swagger-ui] --user
zsh: no matches found: connexion[swagger-ui]

pip install "connexion[swagger-ui]" worked for me

Anyone able to format this into a requirements file?

Hi folks, has anyone managed a way to include in the requirements file?

@johanngomes late reply but I've been facing the same issue trying to deploy to Google App Engine (second generation). Connexion installs just fine but, for whatever reason, the [swagger-ui] extra does not.

As @dtkav mentioned, simply add swagger-ui-bundle to your requirements file (that's all the extra package does when installing anyway)

Below is the output I get when I use pipenv to dump a requirements.txt file (Have removed other dependencies)

Command:

pipenv lock -r

connexion[swagger-ui]==2.7.0
