Installation breaks on Windows10 (conda environment) about kats

[reyemb]

I have had the same problem. Here is how I fixed it.

I created an new conda environment (python 3.8.10)

Installed fbprophet by:
conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet

And then installed kats by:
pip install kats

The origin of the problem is that some compilers aren't installed (gcc). Running the first command solves the problem. Hope it works for you as well :)

I don't think this works anymore. Kats has a strict requirement for fbprophet with version 0.7, but conda-forge has 0.7.1. So, when you try to install kats from pypi, it tries to downgrade fbprophet to 0.7 and then the problem persists.

[bash-j]

I have struggled many times to get any package like fbprophet using pystan to work on my work laptop running Windows 10, which is also locked down without admin rights. On my personal laptop I can install these packages no problem.

I just installed Kats yesterday and got it to work by using conda to create a new environment, installing the dependencies first with conda and using conda-forge using the =version number to make sure it installs the versions kats needs.

Then I had to install nb_conda_kernels into the base environment. For some reason on my work laptop if you change kernels in jupyter notebook to the environment with pystan installed, it doesn't use the correct environment path, so it can't find all the necessary files required to run fbprophet and pystan. But if you install the nb_conda_kernels, and select the environment e.g. 'Python [conda env:kats]' instead of just 'kats' it will load the correct path and the packages will work.

Hope this helps

same as @bash-j went through all the requirements loaded those in first and specifically loaded in fbprophet==0.7 in a new environment before pip installing kats and it worked.

I can second @kgilpas on that. After fixingt he requirements and did a fresh install it worked on my machine.
