Failed installation via pip on Mac OS Sierra

[sarahucl94]

I keep getting this error when trying to install the package on Python3.6 and Python2.7:

/usr/bin/clang -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -stdlib=libc++ -Iinclude -Iigraphcore/include -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/include/python3.6m -c src/CPMVertexPartition.cpp -o build/temp.macosx-10.6-intel-3.6/src/CPMVertexPartition.o clang: error: invalid deployment target for -stdlib=libc++ (requires OS X 10.7 or later) error: command '/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit status 1

I think it's due to mistake in installation of louvain package. Any help is much appreciated.

Hi there,

First - I am really sorry for the late reply. I was on holiday when this was posted and I missed the email notification.

Second - The problem is iGraph (which is the louvain package depends on). I have heard from multiple people now that the dependency on igraph is frustrating and it will be removed in the next version. I have been sent multiple errors of different library problems on both Windows and Mac OS which I am unable to solve (sorry).

The solution

I will release a new version within a week which removes the dependency on igraph (I will then close this issue). This will however remove communitydetection until I find a suitable solution.
(I made my own community detection I while ago, it is just slower than the igraph implementation and I need to think about what to do here).

Until I update teneto

You have two options (1) dig into igraph and Mac OS installation help (starting point) (2) the docker image in the repo works fine (it's what I use daily).

Teneto 0.3.5 released where all iGraph dependencies are removed (as too is teneto.communitydetection). So pip install teneto should work for you now. Let me know if this still doesn't work.
