I have tried installing mayavi for several days, without results. I'm using spyder and anaconda. I can import mayavi on spyder without problem, but when I try importing vtk or from mayavi import mlab, the kernel died. I read a lot on the subject without finding a solution that work. I try all backend (Online, Qt4 and Qt5) without result. I'm still new to Python so I'm not quite sure if I did all the installation right.
To install mayavi I use :
$conda config --add channels conda-forge
$conda install mayavi
I also try to use
$ pip install mayavi
but I get another error that I was not able to solve : Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1. (which I also try to solve without result doing all the update recommended)
I try these tests :
$nosetests -v tvtk/tests ERROR: Failure: OSError
$nosetests -v mayavi ok
System infos (Windows 10)
- anaconda 5.2.0
- conda 4.5.7
- mayavi 4.6.1
- PyQt5 5.11.2
- python 3.6.5
- spyder 3.2.8
- vtk 8.1.0
If someone has a solution that would be great!
