installing through pip fails in python 3 about pylibtiff HOT 10 CLOSED

@EdwardMa12593 I downloaded the code from here and ran python setup.py install instead.

from pylibtiff.

I know this thread has been closed but I'm new to libtiff and have problems installing it. I keep getting the error:

ImportError: Failed to find TIFF library. Make sure that libtiff is installed and its location is listed in PATH|LD_LIBRARY_PATH|..

I tried the installation 2 ways and neither worked. Thanks in advance for your help.

[1] pip3 install libtiff
Collecting libtiff
Downloading libtiff-0.4.1.tar.gz (129kB)
...
Successfully installed libtiff-0.4.1

[2] Download the tarball from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/libtiff
tar -zxvf libtiff-0.4.1.tar.gz
cd libtiff-0.4.1/libtiff
python3 setup.py install

from pylibtiff.

What worked for me after trying everything:

1. Download the libtiff pre-compiled wheel from here:
   https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pylibtiff
   and the bitarray pre-compiled wheel from here:
   https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#bitarray
2. Open command prompt:
   cd C:\path\to\where\your-wheels-are
   pip3 install bitarray-x.y.z.whl
   pip3 install libtiff-t.u.v.whl

from pylibtiff.

I have the same problem.
Do you solve this issue?

from pylibtiff.

There is no release on PyPI with Python 3 support. It only exists in master.

IMHO this should be closed as unsupported until a Python 3 release makes its way to PyPI, at which point a new bug report should be opened if an issue occurs.

from pylibtiff.

This repo doesn't have any tags or releases.python setup.py --version from master outputs 0.0.0. Is there a roadmap to releases?

from pylibtiff.

I don't think that is an issue with this library, @jason-su. It is either numpy is not installed and/or MSVC 14.0 is missing. Have you installed both of these?

from pylibtiff.

PyLibTiff 0.4.1 has been released and I just checked, pip3 install libtiff works.

from pylibtiff.

@hanchec Ditto...

from pylibtiff.

I've downloaded the latest version windows 10. Do I need to get the dll as well?
From where do I get it?
