Flask-RESTful

Any chance the Flask-RESTful module could be installed? I am using Flask and would really like to add Flask-RESTful.

You should be able to install it in your own virtualenv without waiting for the PA developers to install it. See this tutorial for a starting point - that's about Django 1.4, but it should apply to any other packages as well. Where it says things like pip install django, just replace with pip install flask-restful or any other packages you need.

The only exception is anything which requires compiled extension modules, which currently can only be installed by PA developers.

Hey thanks for the info Cartroo , I will try that when I get home.

Ah, I just spotted that pycrypto is a dependency and that probably requires compilation, so it might not work so well after all. Still worth a try in case I'm wrong.
