I am trying to install face_recognition with pip install face_recognition but any time I do that it gives me this output: https://pastebin.com/LJ3XRdSq
Does anyone know a fix for this?
You have to install cmake and dlib:
On the face_recognition github page:
Installing on Mac or Linux
First, make sure you have dlib already installed with Python bindings.
Then, make sure you have cmake installed:
So run these:
pip install cmake
pip install dlib
Before you install face_recognition:
pip install face_recognition
If you're getting an error while installing dlib look at this answer.

I have installed Xcode and Homebrew. Then I have also installed the portaudio package using Homebrew brew install portaudio. After doing that, I have tried to install PyAudio.
I have tried all the following commands:
pip install pyaudio
python3 -m pip install pyaudio
conda install -c anaconda pyaudio
I am currently trying to install PyAudio on my Conda environment. I am using Miniconda on Macbook M1.
Is there any way to solve this, or if not how am I supposed to build the package and place it in my python site-packages??
Kindly Help.
I solved the issue by removing an unwanted urllib3 folder without METADATA inside my python site-packages folder. And then switched the terminal to run on Rosetta2 and It worked.
I am trying to install PyOpenGL using pip on Windows 10.
I have tried to install it using pip install PyOpenGL and it tells me that it has installed it successfully but when I try to use PyOpenGL in python, it tells me that I do not have a module named PyOpenGL. Do you know what the problem is?
Go to Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages
Download a 32 bit or 64 bit package for PyOpenGL provides bindings to OpenGL, GLUT, and GLE
(e.g.
PyOpenGL-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl and
PyOpenGL_accelerate-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl)
Open Command Prompt (cmd.exe) as administrator. Change to the download directory and install the packages by pip install packagename.whl.
e.g:
pip install PyOpenGL-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
and
pip install PyOpenGL_accelerate-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
If the package is already installed, but doesn't work, then you have to ignore the currently installed package, by the option --ignore-installed:
pip install --ignore-installed PyOpenGL-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
pip install --ignore-installed PyOpenGL_accelerate-3.1.5-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
I need to install cv2 for a script that has been written for me. I tried pip install cv2 and pip install open_cv and got the same problem - a warning message from dist.py and complains about zlib being not found. No cv2 installed. I also tried pyopenvc and pip install opencv-python.
So, I went to the opencv site and downloaded the relevant exe. Ran it - generated a heap of subdirectories and a make file and stuff.
What do I do now?
Install opencv-python (which is an unofficial pre-built OpenCV package for Python) by issuing the following command:
pip install opencv-python
run the following command by creating a virtual enviroment using python 3 and run
pip3 install opencv-python
to check it has installed correctly run
python3 -c "import cv2"
In pip package management, there are 4 different OpenCV packages all using the same namespace, cv2. Although they are not officially supported by OpenCV.org, they are commonly used in developers' community. You could install any of them using the following command:
pip install PACKAGE_NAME
where PACKAGE_NAME can be
opencv-python (only contains main modules)
opencv-contrib-python (contains both main and contrib modules)
opencv-python-headless (same as opencv-python but without GUI functionality)
opencv-contrib-python-headless (same as opencv-contrib-python but without GUI functionality)
You should only install one of them depending on your needs. If you accidentally installed multiple of them in the same environment, you can remove them using pip uninstall before installing the correct one again.
For more details, you can refer to the project description of OpenCV on Wheels.
As of 2021, all of these 4 packages are official OpenCV projects. Source: OpenCV Website.
To Install the Current Latest version of OpenCV then use the below commands:
Use this Command:
pip install --upgrade opencv-python
If you're facing problem in above command then try this :
pip install --upgrade opencv-contrib-python
To check the version of installed OpenCV:
import cv2
print(cv2.__version__)
Simply use this for the so far latest version 4.1.0.
pip install opencv-contrib-python==4.1.0.25
For the default version use this:
pip install opencv-contrib-python
If you have a new Raspberry Pi and want to install OpenCV then this tutorial would be a good choice.
For Ubuntu/Linux users:
sudo apt install python3-opencv
As of 10/22/2019, I think the best answer is simply
conda install opencv
It appears opencv is now in the main Anaconda channel.
To see which packages (including opencv) are in the main Anaconda channel go to Anaconda Package Lists and follow the link corresponding to your python version and os version.
Everybody struggles initially while installing OpenCV. OpenCV requires a lot of dependencies in the backend. The best way to start with OpenCV is, install it in a virtual environment. I suggest that you use the Python Anaconda distribution and create a virtual environment using it. Then inside the virtual environment, you can install OpenCV using this command:
conda install -c conda-forge opencv
Please follow the command:
pip install opencv-python
then if you want to use:
import cv2
If it's not worked due to any update, please follow the documentation
Make a virtual enviroment using python3
virtualenv env_name --python="python3"
and run the following command
pip3 install opencv-python
to check it has installed correctly run
python3 -c "import cv2"
To install open_cv you can go to this website or do this,
pip install opencv-contrib-python --upgrade
pip install opencv-python
You can test it by:
C:\> python
>>> import cv2
>>> print(cv2.__version__)
'4.5.1' # your version may be a newer one
You can install opencv the normal way:
pip install opencv-python
If you are getting errors, you can do this:
pip install opencv-python-headless
Open anaconda command prompt and type in below command.
conda install -c conda-forge opencv
Once the 'Solving environment' is done. It will ask to download dependencies. Type 'y'.
It will install all the dependencies and then you are ready to code.
I recommend this for Python 3: Please install it this way with pip
pip3 install opencv-python
This will download and install the latest version of OpenCV.
You could try using below command-
pip install opencv-contrib-python
It will basically download the compatible version. If this command fails, you could upgrade you pip using below command-
python -m pip install āupgrade pip
If you need a pictorial guide, head over to Simple Steps to Install OpenCV in Windows
You can also try installing OpenCV from prebuilt binaries from the official OpenCV site.
->pip install opencv-python you can use this.
But if this code does not working then you can check python version on cmd and anaconda because they are different. So you type command in anaconda prompt and cmd, it will work. You can check this -> pip list
Open terminal
Run the following command
pip install --trusted-host=pypi.org --trusted-host=files.pythonhosted.org opencv-python.
Hope it will work.
Installing cv2 or opencv-python using pip is sometimes a problem. I was having the same problem of installing cv2 with pip. The installation wasn't a problem the problem was to import cv2 after installation. I was getting an Import Error so to fix this i import main from pip to install opencv-python. Try to run the following code in your python file then opencv-python will be installed
from pip._internal import main as install
try:
import cv2
except ImportError as e:
install(["install", "opencv-python"])
finally:
pass
I hope this will help someone
As a reference it might help someone... On Debian system I hard to do the following:
apt-get install -y libsm6 libxext6 libxrender-dev
pip3 install opencv-python
python3 -c "import cv2"
On Ubuntu you can install it for the system Python with
sudo apt install python3-opencv
if you are using Pycharm navigate settings > Project:name > Project interpreter just search the module by name(in this case OpenCV-python) and install it. worked for me
In case you use aarch64 platform with ARM64 cpu - and/or docker
On a development board on ARM64, no python-opencv version were found at all
version: NONE.
I've had to build from source. This allowed to include CUDA support.
In my case it was already available on the board but it wasn't found on the development environment.
If compiling from source is out of reach, there are Dockers
Of course compiling will take some time (few hours on ARM core), but it is worthy process to know as most open source tools can be built this way in case of issues.
I've had this problem in Google Colab, It only worked with this specific package version.
!pip install "opencv-python-headless<4.3"
There are two options-
pip install cv2
or
pip install opencv-python
Hope it helps.
I'm trying to import pyaudio i installed portaudio with the command brew install portaudio and i installed pyaudio with pip now Im trying to import pyaudio and python shows me the error
Could not import the PyAudio C module '_portaudio'
now when i try to follow the instructions of the answer of pyaudio could not import _portaudio
the portaudio tar doesn't have the install file
PORTAUDIO TAR CONTENENTS
What can i do?
Python: 3.4
Operating system: Mac OSX the captain
If you are on Anaconda, try the following command. It worked for me:
conda install -c anaconda portaudio
Follow Step 3 in the link (pyaudio could not import _portaudio):
Open Terminal in the directory. Run the following command line one by one.
./configure
make
make install # you may need to be root link
Then, portaudio will be installed. After this, please follow next steps in the link: Get the dependencies for pyaudio. Uninstall pyaudio and reinstall pyaudio.
