How to use pip install h3 on Windows about h3-py HOT 12 CLOSED

We just released v3.6.1, which should hopefully fix these install issues. Could you please try installing with pip install h3==3.6.1 and let us know how it works?

from h3-py.

This is likely happening because wheels aren't provided for Python 3.10 yet: https://pypi.org/project/h3/#files. If you switch to Python 3.5-3.9 you should be able to install H3 without needing to build it from source yourself.

from h3-py.

Thanks for reporting this. I haven't tried installing h3-py on a Windows system yet, but it looks like it should be possible by either setting https://github.com/uber/h3-py/blob/master/.install.sh to create makefiles, or invoking cmake --build instead of make.

I'm not sure on instructions for you to test that. We would probably need to add AppVeyor CI to the project to test the Windows install.

I´m not quite sure how to invoke the build process right after this step. I´ve already tried to tried to change the .intsall.sh file to create Makefiles and then the build process itself runs without error messages (which doesn´t seem to mean it runs at it should). Because then it runs into an error after make tht the file lib/libh3* doesn´t exist. (which is true after the build process)
So just for trying I´ve tried to swap lib/libh3* by bin/libh3* and after the shell script runs complete without any error. However no python package is created and if there is any further step I just don´t know how to continue from there.

from h3-py.

If you really want h3 on your windows machine without any problems, you can install everything related to your python environment inside a linux subsystem which may seem like a lot of work, but it allows you to utilize every piece of software that was built for linux and works exclusively for it. I simply moved my entire work to the linux subsystem and it has never failed me.

from h3-py.

Closing for now, please re-open if the issue is still there.

from h3-py.

It still does not work on Windows @ajfriend, I get the error
" note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for h3
Failed to build h3
ERROR: Could not build wheels for h3, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects"

Ok will try to install a lower version and let u know how it goes

from h3-py.

Will there be a solution for Python 3.10.x ?

from h3-py.

There should be Python 3.10 wheels on the next release
