pyvistaqt install about pyvistaqt

[GuillaumeFavelier]

I tried again on my work PC without problem.

This is good to hear and is useful as baseline.

The only thing I can think off is that the other PC's have python 3.9.1

Could be because of this. Although I just realize I missed the update of pyvista/pyvista#1001, AFAIK pyvistaqt is not tested yet on python=3.9.*.

I just created a quick test env on my linux with:

conda create -n test-py39 python=3.9

And then I did:

conda activate test-py39
conda install -c conda-forge pyvista pyvistaqt

I was surprised to see that my basic script works as expected but I can't guarantee the same result on Windows.

As a short term solution, you could try on a different version of python.

It's just my guess unfortunately, the other @pyvista/developers might have a different perspective.

I was wondering if there is a procedure to manually install pyvistaqt

You could also try to install the package from source?

git clone https://github.com/pyvista/pyvistaqt.git
cd pyvistaqt
python -m pip install -e .

The commands above will install the latest version still in development.

Not sure if this can be classified as an issue.

Hi @zoner72 , I'll try to help anyway

PIP install gives an SSL error.

Could you share the log?

Are you behind a proxy? After a short search online, I found the following:

pip install --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host pypi.python.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org <package>

@GuillaumeFavelier

thanks for your help

I will retry to reproduce the PIP error when Im back home (currently at work) and post the log.
I initially I thought it was my internal network (new router), but after I tried on the laptop and the install went perfect I realised it must be pc related. I tried again on my work PC without problem.

Since it is a clean install with only Anaconda and Pycharm on the PC, Im a bit surprised it did not work 'out of the box'.

I did try the link you posted yesterday

The only thing I can think off is that the other PC's have python 3.9.1 latest version installed in addition to the full Anaconda installation.

I was wondering if there is a procedure to manually install pyvistaqt

pip after stackoverflow solution has the same result (as above)

Anaconda:

Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.

Manual Install:
great success!
I never realise this is how the manual install works, so will definitely bookmark this.
pyvista now shows in my Anaconda environment and can use pyvistaqt in my code.
However, pyvistaqt does not show in my anaconda environment, not sure if this is how it is suppose to be.

Thanks again for your help, really appreciated.
I hope someone else can maybe solve the problem or solve their install problems
