Kwik-gui not working ...... (URGENT)

[Shavika Rastogi]

Hi !

I have installed klustakwik to do spike sorting on my dataset. After spike sorting, it generates a .kwik file. I want to access this file using kwik GUI.

But everytime I give the command:

phy kwik-gui hybrid_10sec.kwik

Error is generated as follows :

Usage: phy [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Error: No such command "kwik-gui".

I even did :

 

 python -c "import phycontrib; print(phycontrib.__file__)"

But the error is :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/nesnix/Documents/klusta/env/lib/python3.6/site-packages/phycontrib/__init__.py", line 15, in <module>

    from PyQt4.QtCore import (Qt, QByteArray, QMetaObject, QObject,  # noqa
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt4'

I checked and found that python-qt4 is already installed in my system. I don't understand how to get this GUI working.

Please let me know if anyone has some ideas or workaround for this problem.

Hoping for an early response.

With Warm Regards
