ERROR: Directory '.' is not installable. Neither 'setup.py' nor 'pyproject.toml' found.

When I follow the below mentioned steps, I run into an error

git clone https://github.com/asyml/texar.git
cd texar
pip install .

ERROR: Directory ‘.’ is not installable. Neither ‘setup.py’ nor ‘pyproject.toml’ found.

Can someone please help me fix this bug ? Was the setup.py removed from the “texar” directory ? Thanks in advance : )

I’m curious why setup.py would be missing if you cloned the repo directly?

You may try copy the setup.py file to your directory.
