How to properly install csdtoolbox-remote? – Debian

I am having trouble installing the cdstoolbox-remote on my Linux machine (tried both Ubuntu and Debian). I installed it using pip: 

pip install cdstoolbox-remote

Which successfully installs the module, but I can’t import the module in Python. Importing the module causes the following error: 

>>> import cdstoolbox
Traceback (most recent call last):  
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>  
File "/home/an/miniconda2/envs/tools/lib/python3.7/site-packages/cdstoolbox/__init__.py",  
line 8, in <module>  
with open(__main__.__file__) as f:  
AttributeError: module '__main__' has no attribute '__file__'

What can be done to get it working?

    Do you really need cdstoolbox-remote? The standard API for downloading data from CDS would be cdsapi, which can be installed using

    pip install cdsapi

    or using conda (https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/cdsapi)

    I also just tried installing cdstoolbox-remote and got the same problem. But as it is flagged as experimental I even consider it to be possible that the current version is not a stable version.
    And cdsapi seems to work.

    Actually, the CDSAPI can also be used to execute workflows as follows:

    import cdsapi
 
c = cdsapi.Client()
 
with open("workflow.py") as f:
    code = f.read()
 
r = c.workflow(code)
print(c.download(r))
