INSTALL PYDESIGNER PROBLEM

[leojcq89]

After completing all the installations and entering my conda activate mri folder, I execute the command "pip install." and I get the error I attached
PROBLEM PIP INSTALL.txt

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey, thanks for trying out PyDesigner!

From the text file output errors you sent, it looks like you are using Python version 3.12. I know that MRtrix, which PyDesigner calls, does not work with 3.12 since the 'imp' module has been depreciated and removed. PyDesigner definitely works for Python version 3.7 (and may very well work for other versions up to 3.11, though I have not tried this). An update to PyDesigner for newer versions of Python is coming eventually, but the date is TBD.

My suggestion would be to create a new conda environment using Python version 3.7 and then try reinstalling (or anything but 3.12, to see how it works).

Let us know how it goes, thanks!

Try using

conda install python=$version$ like conda install python=3.11
And then install PyDesigner. It worked for me.

Hi @leojcq89, I'm just following up to see if you solved your pip install issue. I'm fairly certain that PyDesigner will need Python version 3.7 to run properly at this point. As in my prior response, version 3.12 of Python will not work due to dependency issues. The next update (in progress now) will allow for more recent versions of Python up to 3.11.

Hope we can get this solved for you!
