I am not able to install prodigy. I get the follwing errror when I enter the command :pip install prodigy-1.11.14-cp310-cp310-win\_amd64.whl -f ./ --no-index

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement plac\<1.2.0,\>=0.9.6 (from prodigy) (from versions: none)  
ERROR: No matching distribution found for plac\<1.2.0,\>=0.9.6

Other versions I get the error: ERROR: prodigy-1.11.14-cp37-cp37-win\_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform. I have tried 38,39 as well.

I am on Windows 10 AMD-64

That's strange. It might be that it's having trouble with the particular wheel.

Just to check, does the `pip install` work for your? The one described here?

Also, when you run `python` what version of Python do you see?

Thank you for your help Koaning. I am on version 3.10.9.

I can only install whl file locally. so I used the following command from the console where my whl files are located.  
pip install prodigy-1.11.14-cp310-cp310-win\_amd64.whl -f ./ --no-index

I get the following response:

Just to confirm, the installation that uses the license key in the pip command does not work?

```python
pip install prodigy -f https://<YOUR LICENSE KEY>@download.prodi.gy

```

I'm suggesting this because this way `pip` takes care of fetching the correct wheel. This does not work?

I cannot go to the internet to fetch the whl files so when i bought prodigy , they gave me 4 whl files. 36-36 to 310-310.

I was trying to install 310 using the command above and could not install it .

pip install prodigy-1.11.14-cp310-cp310-win\_amd64.whl -f ./ --no-index

It looks like the problem is `plac` which is a dependency of Prodigy. Just curious - can you try to only install `plac` on its own: `pip install plac`?

Since you can't `pip install prodigy` - I'm wondering if `plac` may be blocked too.

It is possible to install Prodigy on airtight environment. Here's a post:

> [@Does prodigy work in a completely airtight environment (i.e. AWS instance w/o internet access)?](https://support.prodi.gy/t/does-prodigy-work-in-a-completely-airtight-environment-i-e-aws-instance-w-o-internet-access/911/4):
>
> @Andrey Yes, that should be no problem – you’d just have to install all of Prodigy’s dependencies separately first, before you install the Prodigy wheel with --no-deps. If you’re using the latest version of Prodigy, that would be the following packages: # Our dependencies spacy\>=2.1.0,\<2.2.0 wasabi\>=0.1.3,\<1.1.0 srsly\>=0.0.6,\<1.1.0 # Other dependencies toolz\>=0.8.2,\<=1.0.0 plac\>=0.9.6,\<1.0.0 hug\>=2.4.1,\<2.4.9 waitress\>=1.0.0,\<1.3.0 requests\>=2.0.0,\<3.0.0 peewee\>=2.10.1,\<3.0.0 jsonschema\>=2.6.0,\<…

You would need to install each of the dependencies separately. Perhaps try this first because if you find for whatever reason you can't install those dependencies like `plac`, it's a bit of a non-starter to think about Prodigy.

The post itself is a little out-of-date, so here's v1.11.14's current dependencies:

```terminal
spacy>=3.1.1,<3.6.0
wasabi
srsly>=2.0.0,<3.0.0
catalogue
toolz>=0.8.2,<1.0.0
plac>=0.9.6,<1.2.0
requests
pydantic>=1.10.4,<2.0
fastapi>=0.65.1,<0.95.1
aiofiles
uvicorn>=0.13.3,<0.19.0
peewee>=3.12.0,< 3.17.0
cachetools>=4.2
pyjwt<3.0.0,>=2.0.0
uvloop<=0.14.0; python_version < "3.7" and platform_system != "Windows"
jinja2
python-dotenv>=0.21.1,<2.0.0
typeguard>=3.0.2,<4.0
tqdm>=4.38.0,<5.0.0
typing_extensions<4.6.0

```

Does this help?

Thanks Ryan. I was able to install prodigy. I installed all the dependencies first and then installed prodigy through the whl file.

Thank you again for help !
