Problems Installing Prodigy on Mac

Hello everyone,

I am trying to install Prodigy on my Mac (v 10.13.3) for the first time but I am constantly getting tracebacks on using conda install. Can someone please share the steps they followed when they installed Prodigy for the first time on their mac? Thanks in advance!

Apologies if this question has been posted earlier.

I didn’t have any problems installing Prodigy on MacOS 10.13.x

I created virtual environment with python -m venv and then just installed with pip as described in the installation docs.

Maybe you should post the commands you run and your trace log (and python version) here.

This is based on personal experience: conda sometimes … breaks stuff.

This is mainly true for some of the AWS stack. Could you try installing it with just pip from a virtualenv?

> virtualenv venvname
> source venvname/bin/activate 
> pip install <STUFF YOU WANT TO INSTALL> 

i can also recommend installing with python3.6

> virtualenv -p <SOMEPATH> venvname
> source venvname/bin/activate 
> pip install <STUFF YOU WANT TO INSTALL>
