OS OSX 10.11.6
PsychoPy version 1.90.2
Standard Standalone? (y/n) no. anaconda
I’m trying to install psychopy using python3 using conda. Installation does not give warnings.
Running command:
conda install -c conda-forge pyglet pysoundfile python-bidi moviepy pyosf
downgrades the python version to 3.5.5 if already higher. Experimentation shows that its pyglet that is responsible.
However, when trying to open up the builder I get the following error:
(psypy3) $ python /path/to/anaconda3/envs/psypy3/bin/psychopyApp.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/path/to/anaconda3/envs/psypy3/bin/psychopyApp.py", line 91, in <module> core.shellCall(cmd, env=dict(env, PYTHONW='True')) File "/path/to/anaconda3/envs/psypy3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/psychopy/core.py", line 158, in shellCall raise RuntimeError(msg) RuntimeError: shellCall() requires Python 2.7, or 3.6 and newer.
Looking at the code of core.py, I see:
Notes ----- We use ``subprocess.Popen`` to execute the command and establishstdinandstdoutpipes. Python 2.7 always opens the pipes in text mode; however, Python 3 defaults to binary mode, unless an encoding is specified. To unify pipe communication across Python 2 and 3, we now provide anencodingparameter, enforcingutf-8text mode by default. This parameter is present from Python 3.6 onwards; using an older Python 3 version will raise an exception. The parameter will be ignored when running Python 2.7.
Note: installing pyglet using pip solves this compatibility issue, but only if you do not follow the instructions on the psychopy installation page and create an environment with python=3.5.
Unfortunately, then when trying to run an experiment I get the lovely:
