Installing PythonMagick


I cannot seem to find any instructions on how to install PythonMagick on a Mac. I've tried the instructions given on this link https://gist.github.com/2778301, but am getting following error:

"No package 'MagickCore' found"

Please help?


Solution

  • Having googled around a bit, it appears that you may need to install the ImageMagick package of which "MagickCore" is a component. It looks like you can download an installer for the Mac here: http://cactuslab.com/imagemagick/.

    If you've already installed ImageMagick, you'll likely need to set a couple environmental variables to point to the installation.

    You'll need to include additional information about the error message (just post the full error message) and your Python version for more help.
