Need help running my first REST call

Using the example from:

I need to install the gsql_client but I get this exception executing it from Windows Powershell:

PS D:\Apps\DockerData> pip install gsql_client
pip : The term 'pip' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file,
or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify
that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:1
+ pip install gsql_client
+ ~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (pip:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException  

Evidently I need to do this because when I run the python sample example from this URL I get this exception:

Message=No module named 'gsql_client'

Any help would be great. I’m not an Apple, Unix, python developer/user so its a slow start. c#, wcf, sql is my background.

Thank you for your help and patience.

Are you specifically looking for a python connector? That is a connector that allows you to call TigerGraph while working in Python.

If this is your first time calling your TigerGraph instance via a REST call I would give this part of the docs a really good once over https://docs.tigergraph.com/dev/restpp-api

@gpadvorac This is the hello world of REST calls in TigerGraph curl -X GET "http://localhost:9000/echo

Yes, I think that’s what I’m looking for. I’ve coded a little in in Python and was hoping I could make the example work found at:

If I can make that work then maybe I can make it work in a .net c# project as there are no code examples for .net.

There are a few Python connectors out there, but the one the community most actively uses is the pyTigerGraph https://pypi.org/project/pyTigerGraph/

pip install pytigergraph

I’ve used this connector many times with Juypter & Google Colab doing, Data manipulation, Machine Learning, and Graph Convolution Neural Networks

Here are a few notebooks https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1sYv3Jvc6KYsqC4D-Rxkvjh4iPnrp4rg7

Those are old lab’s and you would need to make modifications to interact with your instance.

George,
If I understood your first post correctly, Windows could not find pip that is needed to install Python modules. pip should be installed with your Python (for newer Python versions), but have a look at these instructions in case it was not.
