Can't import pdal on Windows #132

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

PDAL version - 2.3.0 python-pdal - 3.0.2

If I try to simply import pdal in windows I get a JSONDecodeError. After some investigation I found out that the output of pdal --drivers --showjson is cut short.

Curiously, running the command above straight in the command line gives you the full output, but pushing it to a file with > drivers.json gives you a cropped json in the same way the subprocess call with capture_output is giving.

This is probably some Windows silliness, but I am not super familiar with its internals and couldn't figure it out, so I'm opening the issue to raise this up to someone more knowledgeable than me.

Thanks!

PS Updating python-pdal to 3.2.0 made it worse. import pdal simply crashes the REPL

Please try with a fresh/clean environment and reopen if this is still an issue.
