Pass Travis CI test for python click.version_option decorator?

The goal of the test was to simulate a command that looked like main --version .

When I ran this test in my local environment, it passed (along with the others).

$ pytest

However, when Travis tried to build it, this particular test failed. Here’s the debug log from Travis

Here’s how .travis.yml file looks like:

language: python
# target python versions
python:
  - "3.6"
  - "3.7"
  - "3.8"
# operating systems
os:
  - linux
  - osx
  - windows
# configure jobs
jobs:
  allow_failures:
    - os: windows
    - os: osx
# install dependencies
install:
  - pip install --upgrade pip
  - pip install -r requirements.txt
# run tests
script:
  - pytest
# target branches for builds
branches:
  only:
    - master

how can I fix this? any help would be appreciated

To another thread and good morning @SolarUltima,

Firstly generate the package metadata so the version can be read from. This can be done in different ways, the minimal being

 python setup.py egg_info

The most efficient way of doing this in my opinion is installing the package in editable mode, so use pip and run:

pip install -editable .

The beauty of Travis is all you have to do is just add another command to the install key value section:

install:
  - pip install -upgrade pip
  - pip install -r requirements.txt
  - pip install -editable .

If you want something more compact, you can even combine all three commands into one via:

- pip install -upgrade pip -r requirements.txt -editable .
