installation

[betty6you]

Hi, I am using pyedflib with spikeinterface to extract edf file info. I am using a python 3.9 version. Do I need a C complier and cython to install the package?

Or directly run the code: conda install -c conda-forge pyedflib

Which is easier for me as I am a beginner in Python.

Thanks

when I use conda install -c conda-forge pyedflib to install it under conda environment

it has a file named _pyedflib.cp39-win_amd64.pyd in extesions folder.

But I didn't see the three files: _pyedflib.pyx, c_edf.pxd, edf.pxi in the folder.

Is my installation wrong? Thanks.

Have you tried installing via pip? That should work

'pip install pyedflib'

I tried, same condition, only has a file named _pyedflib.cp39-win_amd64.pyd in extesions folder.

But I didn't see the three files: _pyedflib.pyx, c_edf.pxd, edf.pxi in the folder.

Is this normal? Or I should see the other three files before using the pyedflib?

https://github.com/betty6you/EDFRecordingExtractor/blob/main/EDF_extractor_test.ipynb Please see my code, it keeps giving me 'the file has already been open' error code.

I don't know which part of my code is wrong.

seems like your installation is just working fine!

Probably because you open the file before and do not close it (maybe with recording=se.EDFRecordingExtractor(recording_file, stream_id=None, stream_name=None, all_annotations=False)?). Any EDF file can only be opened once at the same time. I don't think this is related to pyedflib itself, you should probably talk to the authors of the libraries that are using pyedflib.
