Issues with installation about beans

[ajm188]

Hi Amol!

Thanks for bringing this up!

make is tool that is typically only available on unix-based OSes (Mac and linux, in general).
However, there are ways to get unix tools on a windows machine.
One is to install Cygwin.
I would try that, and let me know if you're still running into issues after getting that set up!

@Molie79 I am going to add my reply to the "Getting Started" section of the wiki and close this issue. Feel free to re-open this issue if you are still having troubles.

@ajm188 I have installed Cygwin and running it on the console but am not able to point it to the beans directory. Another thing, can you please explain step by step the process of setting up Beans. What I have done is this:

1. Created account on Google Cloud and create project on it. Then I go to Google gcloud shell and create a virtual environment venv under beans.
2. I activate the virtual environment venv by doing to Scripts folder and typing activate.
3. I open Cygwin terminal and want open bash to the location of beans under Google shell as listed in point 1. However, I am not able to change the location. What is the syntax for opening the Cygwin shell in a particular location.

Also, I need to run the files in bean folder on the local machine or Google shell? Please clarify.

I have installed Cygwin and running it on the console but am not able to point it to the beans directory

cd path\to\local\beans

where the path\to\local\beans is wherever you cloned beans on your machine.

If you have set up Google App Engine and downloaded the Python SDK (it sounds like you have), all further instructions should be run on the local machine.

@ajm188 I changed the path as well but make development gives the following error:

My bet is that you need to change your separator to work for windows. On Unix systems, this is '/', but on Windows it's ''.

So I'm guessing it should be more like:

.\bin\venv-update
venv= venv\
install= blah
bootstrap-deps = blah blah
pip-command= blah blah blah

@asottile looping you in here; do I seem to be on the right track?

I doubt our tool chain works in Windows, other than pre-commit none of them are tested there
