pip install re2 gives an error

I'm trying to download re2 by the command pip install re2 and it gives me this:

Why it isn't working? Or should I download re2 by other way?

NOTE: I figured out that re2 must have google's re2 c++ installed already, If that the problem, can you show me how can I install google's re2 c++ and re2 in simple way? I got confused from what they wrote about how to install.

After Trying MattDMo's Solution I got this:

Since the package re2 is not maintained anymore, you can use Facebook's pyre2 packages and don't need to change any code. You can use the package:

pip install pyre2

Reference: https://github.com/facebook/pyre2

I faced a similar issue. For me the issue was that the bash_profile file was not properly configured.

To solve this problem:

Install jdk

Open ~/.bash_profile in any text editor or use vim ~/.bash_profile command

and add:

export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)

Open a Terminal and run the source command to apply the changes:

source ~/.bash_profile

After this install re2 using pip

pip install re2

If you are on ubuntu, sudo apt-get install libre2-dev is required prior to calling

pip install re2

All you need to do is clone the libre2 Github repo along with the pyre2 Github repo (as the version on PyPI available to pip has errors in the code), build and install libre2 first, then build and install pyre2.

Start your favorite terminal app.
Make src directory in your $HOME for storing source code:
```
mkdir ~/src
```
Enter src dir:
```
cd ~/src
```

Clone repo (assuming you have git installed):

git clone https://github.com/google/re2.git

Enter re2 dir:
```
cd re2
```
Make:
```
make
```
Assuming no errors, make install:
```
sudo make install
```

Clone pyre2 github repo

git clone https://github.com/axiak/pyre2.git ~/src/pyre2

Switch to repo's directory:
```
cd ~/src/pyre2
```
Build:
```
python setup.py build
```
Install:
```
sudo python setup.py install
```
