How to install hopsworks-cloud-sdk on windows

I am running a Hopsworks Feature Store on AWS, started using www.hopsworks.ai.
I wanted to access it from an on-premises Windows laptop, but running:

pip install hopsworks-cloud-sdk

on an Anaconda (2019.10) with Python 3.8 environment failed with a compilation error:
“building ‘_twofish’ extension
error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with “Build Tools for Visual Studio”: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/

First, I installed the visual C++ build tools, but pip install still failed.I found a work-around. First install twofish with conda, then pip install hopsworks-cloud-sdk. This worked for me:

  1. conda install twofish
  2. pip install hopsworks-cloud-sdk
