Install IOTA client for Python on Debian (deprecated)

In this example we install the (outdated) IOTA client libs for Python on Debian 11 using the apt package libudev-dev and we need to install Rust. In the example below, we log in and create a new folder called iota. Then we change to the folder and start the installation:

apt install libudev-dev
mkdir iota
cd iota
git clone -b production https://github.com/iotaledger/iota.rs
curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

At this point, a new login to SSH must be made to load a new shell.

cd iota/iota.rs/bindings/python/native
pip3 install maturin
maturin develop
maturin build --manylinux off

We then receive the following example output:

Built wheel for abi3 Python ≥ 3.6 to /root/iota/iota.rs/bindings/python/native/target/wheels/iota_client_python-0.2.0a3-cp36-abi3-linux_x86_64.whl

We now install this whl file via pip

pip3 install /root/iota/iota.rs/bindings/python/native/target/wheels/iota_client_python-0.2.0a3-cp36-abi3-linux_x86_64.whl

This completes the installation
