OpenChemIE installation not working

[gmaikelc]

conda install -c conda-forge pycocotools==2.0.4

pip install 'OpenChemIE @ git+https://github.com/CrystalEye42/OpenChemIE' pip uninstall MolScribe pip install --no-deps 'MolScribe @ git+https://github.com/CrystalEye42/MolScribe.git@cb08600'

The last three lines are not properly working to install OpenChemIE, any suggestions will be welcome

[CrystalEye42]

Hello, thank you for the feedback! Could you please include the error message you’re getting and also details about your OS and environment to help narrow down the issue?

[gmaikelc]

Hello, thanks for your quick response, my OS is W2, and this is the message that I am getting when trying to run the second line as suggested in the Readme.cmd file.

ERROR: Invalid requirement: "'OpenChemIE"

[CrystalEye42]

One possible thing to try is directly cloning the repository and installing with the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/CrystalEye42/OpenChemIE.git
cd OpenChemIE
pip install .

and then running the 3rd and 4th lines. If this doesn't work, could you also provide the outputs of each of the following commands:

python --version
pip --version
pip freeze

Thanks for the suggestions. I already try, but is still giving some errors, which I am sending below. Thanks again for your help on this issue.

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ERROR: Failed building wheel for pycocotools ERROR: Could not build wheels for pdftotext, pycocotools, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

Could you first install the Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools (possibly optional), run the following commands, and try installing again?

pip install Cmake
conda install -c conda-forge poppler

Can you also confirm whether or not conda install -c conda-forge pycocotools==2.0.4 ran successfully before?

Can you also confirm whether or not conda install -c conda-forge pycocotools==2.0.4 ran successfully before? This was successfully ran. I try the suggestions given above, but still not working.

Thanks again for your help with this issue.

It looks like there are issues with installing pdftotext on Windows, there might be some useful info in this thread https://github.com/jalan/pdftotext/issues/16#issuecomment-399963100
