How to install the environment if I don't have root permission? #15

Hello, I'm following your work and trying to run your code. When I install the environment in my anaconda env with pip install -e transformers-4.28.1 I meet the following problem:

error: can't create or remove files in install directory

The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:

    [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/test-easy-install-3876739.write-test'

The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:

    /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/

Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory?  If the
installation directory is a system-owned directory, you may need to sign in
as the administrator or "root" account.  If you do not have administrative
access to this machine, you may wish to choose a different installation
directory, preferably one that is listed in your PYTHONPATH environment
variable.

Can you provide full requirement.txt or provide some help? Thank you!
