Unable to install pygraphviz (windows)

[ZeynabRostami]

Hi
First of all, thanks for such an amazing project.
I want to run the pretrained models but when I do It keeps showing this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python39\lib\site-packages\networkx\drawing\nx_agraph.py", line 279, in pygraphviz_layout
import pygraphviz
File "C:\Python39\lib\site-packages\pygraphviz_init_.py", line 56, in
from .agraph import AGraph, Node, Edge, Attribute, ItemAttribute, DotError
File "C:\Python39\lib\site-packages\pygraphviz\agraph.py", line 20, in
from . import graphviz as gv
File "C:\Python39\lib\site-packages\pygraphviz\graphviz.py", line 13, in
from . import _graphviz
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _graphviz: The specified module could not be found.

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\z.rostami\PycharmProjects\housegan\variation_bbs_with_target_graph_segments_suppl.py", line 232, in

raise ImportError("requires pygraphviz " "http://pygraphviz.github.io/") from e
ImportError: requires pygraphviz http://pygraphviz.github.io/

I spend a lot of time setting up Graphviz and pygraphviz successfully and I think I did! But the problem with pygraphviz still exists.
Isn't there any way to setup these libraries on Windows? Should I install Anaconda just for one library? Or install a VMware and clone the project in Linux ?! Has anyone installed pygraphviz in Windows?

Hello @ZeinabRostami, I am not a windows user so I may not be able to help much, but I would try installing Anaconda. Overall I find Anaconda good for installing new packages so it could be helpful not only for pygrahviz, but for other packages you may want to install in the future.

1 - Make sure you downloaded Visual C/C++, e.g. from here: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

2 - Download and Install graphviz packagefiles https://gitlab.com/graphviz/graphviz/-/package_files/6164164/download

3 - Run in terminal
python -m pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-IC:\Program Files\Graphviz\include" --global-option="-LC:\Program Files\Graphviz\lib" pygraphviz

---------------- I made it using a conda enviroment

other sugestions like conda install graphviz pygraphviz did not work out.

Hi rickkk856 I really appreciate your attention! I managed to run your awesome project using google colab and it helped me a lot with my project. I will try your recent suggestion as it's more efficient to run the project locally. Thanks again 😁

Shouldn't there be a "pip install graphviz 64" or something like that?
