Hello everyone,
I encountered the same problem as Giorgia, but thanks to the conversation and Maria's suggestion, I was able to install pdfgetx3. I'm sharing my installation notes here in the hope that they will help someone new to coding like me.
First, check the pdfgetx documentation link here
Then
Execute the commands in anaconda prompt
#Search for conda environment
conda env list
#delete overlap environment, if installed other versions before. (optional)
conda remove --name pdfgetx_env --all
# create a new pdfgetx env with the correct python version(3.7)
conda create -n pdfgetx_env python=3.7
#activate conda env
conda activate pdfgetx_env
#direct to the folder containing the installation file, for example
cd C:\Users\Downloads\pdfgetx\
#In the same folder make a simple requiremets.txt file. It has the following lines to help install the necessary packages.
pip
setuptools
six
NumPy
matplotlib==3.5
IPython
#install package according to the requirement file
conda install --yes --file requirements.txt
#install the pdfget file
pip install diffpy.pdfgetx-2.2.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl
#test
python -m diffpy.pdfgetx.tests.run
cd C:\Users\Downloads\pdfgetx\pdfgetxn3-examples\Ni
Now you should be able to see the G(r) of Ni.
Cheers,
Linh.
