bandsplot: unexpected keyword argument 'dirname'

I tried to plot the band structure following the instructions in 'DFT Prep' section of the documentation, but apparently there is a problem in the very first keyword argument 'dirname'.

Are there any other operations to do besides those indicated in 'DFT Prep'?

Thank you in advance

Hello!

how Pyprocar was downloaded? I believe it is on an older version. I will need to update something in the package.

I downloaded it with 'conda install -c conda-forge pyprocar'

lllangWV commented

Thanks for the information. The PyProcar version is behind on conda-forge. I am going to be talking with another developer tomorrow about updating the package. I will keep you updated.

Hello, is there any news?

Hey,

sorry for the late response. I talked with the other developers and we are going to try to update pypi and conda-forge this week. There is an issue with applying symmetry of the kmesh that we want to fix before we do so.

In the meantime, I would use the code by cloning the repository from GitHub.

git clone git@github.com:romerogroup/pyprocar.git
cd pyprocar
pip install .

git clone [git@github.com](mailto:git@github.com):romerogroup/pyprocar.git results in an error like this:

Cloning into 'pyprocar'...
Host key verification failed.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Hey,

Usually, an error like this is associated with your github ssh keys. If you have them set already, try to delete them and create new ones.
