Hello,
I was trying to install two Python packages: 'OriginExt' and 'originpro' on Google Colab. But I am getting the following error messages;
--------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) !pip install OriginExt
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement OriginExt (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for OriginExt
(2) !pip install originpro
Collecting originpro

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement OriginExt==1.0.9 (from originpro) (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for OriginExt==1.0.9 (from originpro)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone know how to install the aforementioned two python packages on Google Colab?
Thanks,
Raees

It matters where the Python interpreter is running. If The google colab IDE is able to run a local interpreter (same computer in which Origin is installed), then it should work. But if the interpreter used for the Colab IDE is, say, on Googles servers, then the IDE won't work.
I personally use Visual Studio Code (https://code.visualstudio.com/) as my IDE though any other IDE that uses the local Python interpreter should work fine. I've even used Jupyter
Notebooks via local Anaconda to run originpro code.

Thanks, Chris, for your prompt reply.
Based on your answer above, do you mean, as of now, I cannot use the Google Colab as my python IDE in order to externally interact with Origin/OriginPro software?

Hi,
According to this document: https://colab.research.google.com/notebooks/intro.ipynb
"Colab notebooks execute code on Google's cloud servers..."
That being the case, the Google cloud server would have to be Windows based and have Origin installed on it to even install those packages in the first place. Origin HAS to be installed on the same machine on which the code executes.
Thanks,
