HI, the install of your library is impossible after Python 3.11 distutils disapear since 3.12

Some projects have been able to work around the issue by manually editing the code to import from setuptools._distutils instead of distutils.

Hi @tmonseigne, thanks for opening the issue.
Could you give us some more detail about your OS and CPU architecture?
I see from your log that during your installation pip is downloading the tar and trying to build the python wheel from scratch (which is likely the cause for the issues you're encountering).
However, in pypi we have prebuilt wheels for NanoPyx supporting Windows (non-arm CPUs), Mac (only arm CPUs) and Linux (non-arm CPUs) for Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12. Also, the most up to date release is 1.1.0 so I find it a bit strange that your pip installation is defaulting to 0.4.0 (which also has the pre-built wheels).

Could you try on a clean environment run:

pip install nanopyx==1.1.0  
pip install napari-nanopyx  

Let us know if that results in a successful installation :)

Hi @tmonseigne , thanks for the reply.
As of now (v1.1.0) we are not yet supporting Python 3.13, would you mind trying a version of Python between 3.9 and 3.12?
The reason for this, was that with Python 3.13 only Numpy > 2 was available, which for some time had backwards compatibility issues with other libraries.
However, with the upcoming 1.2.0 release of NanoPyx we will start supporting Python 3.13 as well. Our expectation is that we will have it ready in less than a month.
If in the meantime you want to use Python 3.13 I can help you build the package from source from our "updates" branch.

Best,
Bruno

thanks, It was just for information the compatibility.
For the moment I use a separated environment with 3.11 for NanoPyx
