Installing Splunk SDK for Python

Question

I'm trying to install the splunk SDK for Python. I run the following command, "C:\Python\python.exe" "C:\Python27\splunk-sdk-python-1.5.0\setup.py", and I get the following results: .

I've tried putting the splunklib folder in multiple stpots within the Python27 directory. None of the location seem to work. I also tried changing the registry values: How to execute Python scripts in Windows?.

Any help as to how to install the Splunk SDK for Python would be greatly appreciated.

Can you try installing it with pip instead? pip install splunk-sdk — Shakeel
No, when I type in pip install splunk-sdk, my command prompt says, 'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. — pHorseSpec
See stackoverflow.com/questions/4750806/…, let me know if that helps (remember the SDK doesn't work with Python 3.x) — Shakeel

In case you have not resolved pip, the below command should work to install modules with pip. I have multiple versions of Python and this is how I install to the correct location.

C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe install splunk-sdk
