Error installing goslate API for python on Windows

Question

I’m getting this result when I try to install the goslate API, which is a more optimized Google Api to mess with translations and other things.

C:\Users\chris\Documents\PyCharm Projects\Integrador\goslate-1.5.1>py setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 8, in <module>
      import goslate as module

      import concurrent.futures

      from concurrent.futures._base import (FIRST_COMPLETED,

      raise type(self._exception), self._exception, self._traceback
                                 ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

It seems that it is giving a problem in the module futures, and I’ve even lowered that lib futures latest and installed it quietly, only it did no good.

Question

Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problem?

P.S. I am using python version 3.5.1

Answer 1

As you can see on that occasion Futures repository, Futures is a module made for programs of version 2.x to be compatible with Features of version 3.x, so it doesn’t make much sense to install the Future module for versions 3.x.

Therefore, uninstalling Utures should solve your problem.

Another addition is that perhaps it is simpler to use the Pip to install these packages.
