Why can I not create a wheel in python?
Install the wheel package first:
pip install wheelThe documentation isn't overly clear on this, but "the wheel project provides a bdist_wheel command for setuptools" actually means "the wheel package...".
I also ran into the error message invalid command 'bdist_wheel'
It turns out the package setup.py used distutils rather than setuptools. Changing it as follows enabled me to build the wheel.
#from distutils.core import setupfrom setuptools import setup
Update your setuptools, too.
pip install setuptools --upgradeIf that fails too, you could try with additional --force flag.
