Issues trying to build dash-table from source

Dash Python
1

Windows 10 Pro
Python 3.7

I’ve made a Github fork of dash-table in an effort to test out some minor changes, but I am unable to successfully build the package. Here’s what I’ve tried (bear in mind I’m not experienced these types of builds):

I first tried a simple pip install from git. This only brings over Format.py and FormatTemplate.py, everything else is missing:

pip install git+https://github.com/my-github/dash-table@dev#egg=dash-table

Next I tried pip install editable. This appears to bring over everything, but when I try to build it, again all I get is Format.py and FormatTemplate.py

pip install -e git+https://github.com/my-github/dash-table@dev#egg=dash-table
python setup.py build

I tried a simple pip install from github again with verbose on; the output is pretty huge so I’ve only included the setup steps. I’m noticing warnings for no files found matching ‘dash_table…’ pertaining to a number of necessary files; any idea why these files aren’t in the build?
