Can't install the pyhash module

Question

I'm trying to install the pyhash module by I keep getting an error. I tried 'pip install pyhash' and 'pip install pyhash==0.9.3' and none worked. The error is:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Answer 1

You need to install pypy (different implementation of python).

"pyhash only support pypy v6.0 or newer, please download and install the latest pypy."

https://www.pypy.org/download.html

Answer 2

I was also facing issues installing 'pyhash' using 'pipenv' and pip ('pip install pyhash==0.9.3') on Linux, and I think this might help someone else with the same. I had a different version of 'setuptools' installed in 'pipenv'. To check

pip3 list |grep setuptools

and

pipenv run pip3 list |grep setuptools

In my case, pipenv had the latest setuptools installed. The error I was getting while installing pyhash ("error in pyhash setup command: use_2to3 is invalid.") was because there was a conflict with a version of setuptools. To make pyhash install successfully, I had to downgrade setuptools inside pipenv by

pipenv run python -m pip install 'setuptools~=57.5.0'

and install pyhash (not from Pipfile)

pipenv run python -m pip install 'pyhash==0.9.3'

I hope this works for whoever uses 'pipenv'.
