pip install PyQt5 fixed it.

Should be documented.

[mcastorina]

Thanks for the feedback.

I will add PyQt5 as a dependency in pip.

[marcowork]

adding PyQt5 breaks the pip install on ubuntu (all major versions):

  Downloading matplotlib-2.2.4-cp27-cp27mu-manylinux1_x86_64.whl (12.8 MB)
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement PyQt5 (from graph-cli) (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for PyQt5 (from graph-cli)

Also Graph-CLI is not available on python3 (where as python 2.7 has been deprecated since january 2020

tried the same run on MacOs

I have to add... I am using Azure DevOps with Microsoft hosted agent Pool.

Thanks for catching that. I just debugged in a docker image of ubuntu, and removing the PyQt5 dependency from pip fixes it. It seems to be working fine without the library.

I just pushed version 0.1.4 which includes the fix.

Pasting a pip freeze for reference.

Also, it should be available in python3. Maybe the issue is related to Azure?

$ python3 -m pip search graph-cli | grep graph-cli
graph-cli (0.1.3)                     - A CLI utility to create graphs from CSV files.

[marcowork]

Once I am back home I will test it on Azure DevOps on multiple OSes.

[marcowork]

Oke, it installs now... but somehow on the hosted Microsoft agents Graph is not doing anything (this is not due to graph I think but more Azure Devops. BTW On both OS it installs.

[marcowork]

I think you can close the issue

[mcastorina]

Great, thanks for testing!

As for the issue with graph not doing anything.. have you tried using -o output.png to write the image to a file instead of displaying? Hope you get it working, and feel free to open another issue if needed.
