How to install python iexfinance package on Anaconda? - python

What is the exact command for installation of the python iexfinance package when using the Anaconda command prompt? Using the pip commands mentioned under "install" here does not work. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/iexfinance


It seems this package is not available through anaconda distribution.
Usually, besides the conda install <package> command, you have the alternative:
conda install -c conda-forge <package>
In your case, you can create a conda environment:
conda create --name <yourenv> python=3.5
then source activate <yourenv>,
and inside this environment you install your package, like so:
pip3 install iexfinance
then proceed to install other packages with conda install <package> as you see fit.

What is the difference between using conda pip install and conda skeleton?

I need to install a python package from pypi
Which are the differences between installing it directly in the conda enviroment using conda pip install, and using conda skeleton to build a conda package from the pypi package, and then add install it to the conda enviroment.

The difference is similar to using Software installer to install packages and apt-get install to install packages in Ubuntu. conda pip transfers whole control to pip for installing the required package whereas, conda skeleton uses functionality of conda itself to do all the necessary work step by step.

dlib installation on jupyter(Anaconda 3)

Can anyone tell that how much time it will take to install the 'dlib' library in jupyter.
I am trying from 2 days but its not installing.
Thanks.
I have used following command to install dlib in jupyter:
pip install dlib

Open powershell in anaconda. Create an environment using
conda create -n envname
and activate the environment via
conda activate envname
Then try this:
conda install -c conda-forge dlib

conda environment has module installed but it does not import [duplicate]

Just installed a package through anaconda (conda install graphviz), but ipython wouldn't find it.
I can see a graphviz folder in C:\Users\username\Anaconda\pkgs
But there's nothing in: C:\Users\username\Anaconda\Lib\site-packages

The graphviz conda package is no Python package. It simply puts the graphviz files into your virtual env's Library/ directory. Look e.g. for dot.exe in the Library/bin/ directory.
To install the graphviz Python package, you can use pip:
conda install pip and pip install graphviz.
Always prefer conda packages if they are available over pip packages. Search for the package you need (conda search pkgxy) and then install it (conda install pkgxy). If it is not available, you can always build your own conda packages or you can try anaconda.org for user-built packages.
Update Nov 25, 2018: There exists now a python-graphviz package at Anaconda.org which contains the Python interface for the graphviz tool. Simply install it with conda install python-graphviz.
(Thanks to wedran and g-kaklam for posting this solution and to endolith for notifying me).
Update May 26, 2022: According to the pygraphviz website, the conda-forge channel should be used: conda install -c conda-forge pygraphviz (thanks to ian-thompson)

On conda:
First install
conda install graphviz
Then the python-library for graphviz python-graphviz
gv_python is a dynamically loaded extension for python that provides
access to the graph facilities of graphviz.
conda install python-graphviz
There is also pydot package, which can parse and dump into DOT language, used by GraphViz
conda install pydot

for me the problem was solved by installing another supportive package.
so I installed graphviz package through anaconda
then I failed to import it
after that I installed a second package named python-graphviz also through anaconda
then I succeeded in importing graphviz module into my code
I hope this will help someone :)

You can actually install both packages at the same time. For me:
conda install -c anaconda graphviz python-graphviz
did the trick.

To install graphviz,
conda install -c anaconda graphviz
pip install graphviz
If conda command not found. Follow these:
export PATH=~/anaconda/bin:$PATH
conda --version # to check your conda version
Difference between conda and pip installation,refer this stackoverflow answer

I have followed the following steps and it worked fine for me.
1 . Download and install graphviz-2.38.msi from
https://graphviz.gitlab.io/_pages/Download/Download_windows.html
2 . Set the path variable
(a) Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables > Path > Edit
(b) add 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Graphviz2.38\bin'

Graphviz is evidently included in Anaconda so as to be used with pydot or pydot-ng (both of which are included in Anaconda). You may want to consider using one of those instead of the 'graphviz' Python module.

For ubuntu users I recommend this way:
sudo apt-get install -y graphviz libgraphviz-dev

Remeber！ If you are using jupyter notebook, please restart it after the installing. That's work for me.
Because the condition before is a static variate as below:

Check if tensorflow is activated in your terminal
first deactivate it using
conda deactivate
then use the command
conda install python-graphviz
and then install
conda install graphviz
this is solution for UBUNTU USERS :) CHEERS :)

This command works officially for python:
conda install -c conda-forge python-graphviz

run this:
conda install python-graphviz

I am using anaconda for the same.
I installed graphviz using conda install graphviz in anaconda prompt.
and then installed pip install graphviz in the same command prompt. It worked for me.

I tried this way and worked for me.
conda install -c anaconda graphviz
pip install graphviz

speedml not working with py-xgboost / conda installed py-xgboost is not recognized by pip

I have install py-xgboost from anaconda using:
conda install py-xgboost
where it is shown up when I run
conda list
conda env export
But from pip it doesnt show up:
pip freeze
Is there a way to make pip able to 'see' xg-boost that is installed from a conda package? The reason I need this is because I need speedml which has a dependency on xg-boost and speedml is only available to me from pip (the enterprise anaconda repo do not have speedml).
Thanks!!

This can actually be solved by using
--no-deps
as described in this SO question
So for example what I need is speedml but it requires xgboost then I create the conda environment, installed py-xgboostm, and run the following in same conda env.:
pip install speedml --no-dependencies
And afterwards speedml works!

install pip3 for conda

Python2.6 was installed by default in my old centos server. Now I want to create a Python3 environment to install python3 specific module by conda
conda create -n py3 python=3.5.3
source activate py3
After activate the py3, I try to install hovercraft by pip3 install hovercraft, the shell tells "command not found: pip3". At first I thought pip3 was installed with Python3, but the result was not the case.
So I think I can install it manually. The package gzip file was downloaded from python package index, and install by conda install --file hovercraft-2.3.tar.gz. But it doesn't work.
Now I have two problems:
how to install pip3 for virtual-env create by conda?
Is it possible to install python package index downloaded package locally in conda?

pip3 and pip would make a difference only when you are not using any environment managers like virualenv (or) conda. Now as you are creating a conda environment which has python==3.x, pip would be equivalent to pip3.
