Anaconda and htm.core

I’m following Matt Taylor’s YouTube channel for binding.

Oh man, don’t do that. Those videos are really old. I should probably take them down.

Matt taylor taught me a lot of new information. I respect him very much. And I will always follow. I hope I will meet you someday.

Ok, have Anaconda python working with htm.core on Windows 10. No need for virtualenv, just use the ‘Anaconda Prompt’.

You will have to build from sources because the pre-built packages are for standard python3.7. So you need to download the repository or clone it.

1. open the Anaconda Prompt , NOT the normal Command Prompt. Look in your start menu under 'Anaconda3 (64bit)`.
2. cd to the htm.core repository that you downloaded or cloned.
3. run python setup.py install

That should run successfully. You are ready to go.
To run the unit tests do the following:

  python setup.py test

Note that htm.core is tested only with standard Python3.7 in the CI. However, the unit tests seem to work fine with Anaconda. So if anyone finds a problem running under Anaconda python let us know, otherwise we will not be aware of it.

I will update the htm.core README file.

Thank you so much. Problem is solved. I can code on both anaconda and pycharm.

Your advice was very helpful. I installed the c ++ plugin and also used setup files in the CL folder.

Hi, I was getting the following errors

OS: macOS Monterey 12.3.1
Conda Create: 3.8.10
Installed using simple build instructions-

pip install setuptools packaging
python setup.py install
import htm
import htm.bindings
python setup.py test

all the tests work,except for 2 with these errors:
FAILED algorithms/anomaly_likelihood_test.py::ArtificialAnomalyTest::testCaseIncreasedSpikeFrequency - AssertionError: False is not true
FAILED algorithms/anomaly_likelihood_test.py::ArtificialAnomalyTest::testCaseUnusuallyHighSpikeFrequency - AssertionError: False is not true

and when I try

import htm.bindings.sdr

the above returns:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 1, in
File “/Applications/PyCharm CE.app/Contents/plugins/python-ce/helpers/pydev/_pydev_bundle/pydev_import_hook.py”, line 21, in do_import
module = self._system_import(name, *args, **kwargs)
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘htm.bindings.sdr’

thank you for any help!

Edit: I managed to fix the issue using python 3.7, I also cloned the repo instead of downloading for whatever that’s worth.

UnicodeDecodeError: ‘charmap’ codec can’t decode byte

Old post, but same here. I switched to unicode in the console. On a windows command prompt you can use the command “chcp 65001” to do so.
