I am writing a custom yocto recipe that should install a python package from a .whl file.

I tried it using a recipe that contains:

inherit pypi setuptools
PYPI_SRC_URI="http://ci.tensorflow.org/view/Nightly/job/nightly-pi-zero/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/output-artifacts/tensorflow-1.5.0rc1-cp27-none-any.whl“

But it does not work that way, it states, that a setup.py file is missing and when trying to write a custom do_compile task that runs pip install it says, that pip is an unkown command.

When installing .whl files directly onto the target system one would type the following:

pip install 

Thanks for your help!
