How to run pianoplayer in mac? Thank you!
Hi there-
I've got all the packages installed and PATH variables set, but when I try to run pianoplayer from the cmd line, I get this error:Tried changing HOME to HOMEPATH or HOMEDRIVE in activate.py, which yields this:
Any suggestions? (Yes, I know my Python path variable is the super lazy version in APPDATA and I really need to just re-install it under C:. 🤣 )
Hi - sorry I'm not very familiar with windows OS ... I think there should be a
binarea where executables are stored - if you manage to find it it should contain thepianoplayerexecutable or script. You may need to then type:
python pianoplayerHow to run pianoplayer in mac? Thank you!
On mac - after
pip install pianoplayer- you should be able to simply run it by command line!Got it working!
One thing I found (that I wasn't aware of) is that Windows had mucked up my 2.7 and 3.6 Python installs and was using 2.7 as the default, so every library and script was in 2.7. I ended up uninstalling 2.7, but it still wasn't working when I typed it in as "python pianoplayer." It would work if I double clicked on the pianoplayer file in file explorer and used "open with," but then the output.xml file was ending up in /Windows/System32 and it'd throw a permissions error.
I then noticed that if I just typed "python" in the command prompt, the #$& Windows store kept opening, which lead me to this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58754860/cmd-opens-window-store-when-i-type-python
Fixed that and am able to run in command prompt with "python pianoplayer" in the /bin directory. Make sure you're running it as admin.
Hope this helps!
My pianoplayer is at C:\Users****\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\Scripts\pianoplayer
**** is my user name.
maybe you should find where your pianoplayer is.
Hi,there. Here is a way to avoid bat file to run this porject in windows 11(surely),winodws10(not sure)
if you have try to learn the d2l,you are likely to have download a miniconda.
this vedio may help
if so, try to use this terminal tpye in pip install pianoplayer
and then quit that
find the path you download conda.
enter the "Scripts" folder, then right click, chose open in the terminal
type "python pianoplayer" and enter
Done,enjoy it.it works for me in Win 11. Note that the python path may diffrenent and need to add to environment.
I get this error: "AttributeError: 'Part' object has no attribute 'flatten'".
