The GUI needs an extra dependency for pyqt. From the README: "To install this project with gui and all its dependencies, add #egg=anime-downloader[gui] to the pip command you are using to install it. Example: pip install -U git+https://github.com/anime-dl/anime-downloader#egg=anime_downloader[gui]"

Try installing pyqt5 through pip, and see if the problem persists.

@IguanasInPyjamas so the homebrew installation does not work for mac? Should the install docs be updated then?

[IguanasInPyjamas]

No, the homebrew installation should work for anime-dl, you're wanting anime-dl + GUI, the GUI install options are directly mentioned in the README (we have to treat them separately technically as having pyqt5 as a direct dependency breaks android)

All you need to do is pip install PyQt5 and the GUI should fully work. Please, give it a go.

[crimson-med]

Per my previous comment I have already installed PyQT5 (more info section)

Running:

pip3 install PyQt5

Results in:

Requirement already satisfied: PyQt5 in /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages (5.15.1)

[IguanasInPyjamas]

That is interesting, maybe you now have more than one python environment installed? does brew create it's own copy of python, on one of my pcs I had an issue like this where pyqt was only being picked up by anaconda for a while but I can't remember how I fixed it.

If the module is installed I have no answer to why a python import command is failing, and I don't have a mac to test this :/

[IguanasInPyjamas]

Looking through stackexchange, mostly it comes through when you have different environments, if you can -m pip install pyqt on the right python on your system it'll import. Check these following stackoverflow links;

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53460186/pyqt5-modulenotfounderror-no-module-named-pyqt5

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56031636/pycharm-error-modulenotfounderror-no-module-named-pyqt5

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57485461/pyqt5-qtwidgets-module-not-found-when-pyqt-is-installed-with-anaconda

The last one specifically may be of use, if you have multiple pythons in your path it takes the top-most one as first, if that one doesn't have the module then it won't pull the import

if I use

brew list python python3

I only get python3.9 listed

Also tried

sudo python3 -m pip install PyQt5

And i get the same:

Requirement already satisfied: PyQt5 in /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages (5.15.1)

[ProductiveAsparagus56]

@crimson-med try /usr/local/opt/python@3.9/libexec/bin/python -m pip install PyQt5 worked for me after installing with homebrew.

edit: spoke way too soon... still same error

[IguanasInPyjamas]

this is a package install issue, not to do with anime-dl
