Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix> about nimpy HOT 3 OPEN

I too am having this problem. (Python 3.9.13 Anaconda install on Windows).

from nimpy.

It seems it has more to do with anaconda/venv rather than with nimpy: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19292957/how-can-i-troubleshoot-python-could-not-find-platform-independent-libraries-pr

I've never used venv so can't tell for sure. I'm open to suggestions if there's anything we can do.

from nimpy.

I was struggling for a while trying to call a python func FROM nim, but the func depends on a library installed in a virtual env

from pyfiglet import Figlet

def test():
    f = Figlet(font='slant')
    print(f.renderText('text to render'))

here is my nim code and here is the compile script

nim c -r main.nim

import strutils
import nimpy

let py = pyImport("main")

discard py.test()

when compiling I would get an error saying the module was not found

Error: unhandled exception: <class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>: No module named 'pyfiglet' [Exception]

I solved this by modifying the sys path IN my python script to add the sitepackages of my venv

import sys
sys.path.append(r'C:\Users\...\Desktop\Scripts\Temp_Projects\nimpy_test_venv_interop_10_06_2023-01_25PM\venv\Lib\site-packages')

from pyfiglet import Figlet
f = Figlet(font='slant')

def test():
    print(f.renderText('text to render'))

from nimpy.
