Hello i just found a bug at the moment of installing arcgis with pip or pipenv, no matter if i try with or without dependencies the error is the same

error in arcgis setup command: 'install_requires' must be a string or list of strings containing valid project/version
requirement specifiers; [32m[1mExpected[0m end or semicolon (after version specifier)
keyring >=19,<=21.8.*

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: metadata-generation-failed

× Encountered error while generating package metadata.
╰─> See above for output.

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
hint: See above for details.
[0m
This is likely caused by a bug in [32marcgis[0m. Report this to its maintainers.

Any luck??? Incredible that we can't deploy our function because of this error on the cloud(it was working properly previously!). Cloud function uses pip, not conda.

Update.

Downgrading arcgis to 1.9.1 solved the issues (using python 3.8), but at the cost of having to use a dated version of the API.

Several inconsistencies with the 2.* version dependencies.

Did you find any other solution? @degarzonm @GISAdministrator_LMCC @LinasSpraunius

I am also running into the same problem. I tried multiple versions of arcgis, as well as different versions of python - but had no luck until I used python==3.8.10, and arcgis==1.8.5.post3. Not a solution, but an intermediate fix until the arcgis folks fix the issue.

For any windows users, here is a .bat script you can run to set up a python venv with arcgis==1.8.5.post3 (assuming you have python==3.8.x installed and are on a windows machine):

@echo off setlocal REM Set the paths set PYTHON_DIR=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38 set VENV_NAME=py38 REM Create a new virtual environment %PYTHON_DIR%\python.exe -m venv %VENV_NAME% REM Activate the virtual environment call %VENV_NAME%\Scripts\activate.bat REM Install the packages pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel pip install "keyring>=19,<=21.8.*" pip install --use-pep517 arcgis==1.8.5.post3 endlocal

Yes, locally is allowing to install up to 1.9.1, but for cloud functions to work it has to be 1.8.* . Here is a topic with more info on one of the broken dependencies (urllib)
