Is there a Quickstart somewhere?

[RDaneelOlivav]

Hi,

Trying to get the example made by @Zbysekz working but juts cant start the main.py:

(ri_venv) rdaneel (master *) python $ python main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 14, in
from htm.bindings.algorithms import SpatialPooler
ImportError: No module named htm.bindings.algorithms

I tried to install and compile the nupic.cpp but ran into an issue: htm-community/htm.core#702

Any ideas? Suggestions?

[Zbysekz]

You will get and advice in the repo issue how to correctly install htm.core, but maybe you can also install from binary releases (they are up to date) https://github.com/htm-community/htm.core/releases

Thanks!
I git the htm.core installed for python3.7 virtual environment. Tried python 2.7 but it gave this error even after installing the requierements:

(ri_venv2.7) rdaneel RI $ python -m pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ htm.core
DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 will reach the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 won't be maintained after that date. A future version of pip will drop support for Python 2.7. More details about Python 2 support in pip, can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support
Looking in indexes: https://test.pypi.org/simple/
Collecting htm.core
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement htm.core (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for htm.core

Once I downloaded the htm-2d-object-modeling git, I executed the python/main.py and got this error:

(ri_venv3.7) rdaneel (master) python $ python main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 14, in
from htm.bindings.algorithms import SpatialPooler
ImportError: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by /home/rdaneel/RI/ri_venv3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/htm/bindings/algorithms.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so)

I really dont know if this is related to using python 3.7 or what exactly. Used python 3.7 because aparently htm-community/htm.core#19.

I'll leave here the instalation script and any help will be appreciated. I cant wait to start digging in the code, but these setup issues are getting in the way :(.

install_htm2dobjects.sh

• There is no point to trying to run htm2D project if the htm.core installation failed.
• type "python --version" in console, what it returns? because it seems that if you type this:

(ri_venv2.7) rdaneel RI $ python -m pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ htm.core
DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 will reach the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your ...

its not using python3.7

check also this further in your sh script, you can use "python3" or "python3.7" keyword depending on you OS variables

[Zbysekz]

Or maybe i misunderstood and you was able to install htm.core with py3.7 with no error

Successfully installed htm.core-2.0.18

Then I install the requirements for htm-2d-object:
(ri_venv3.7) rdaneel (master *) python $ pwd
/home/rdaneel/RI/htm-2d-object-modeling/python
python -m pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

I successfully installed htm.core with python 3.7 venv.
But when I execute:

(ri_venv3.7) rdaneel (master *) python $ python3.7 main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 14, in
from htm.bindings.algorithms import SpatialPooler

I'm using an Ubuntu 16, that might be it? Don't really know the issue here. Whats the setup you recommend to work with then?

[Zbysekz]

I am using Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver), not using virtualenv, just directly python in OS, since i have also troubles with it. Using python 3.6. I am building hmt.core from source (see help in repo)

[RDaneelOlivav]

I tried this smae procedure in a VMachin in Ubuntu 18, venc python 3.7 and at least no errors appeared . The python main.py gave some output and no errors.

So now my question is: where can a find the ode and execute the demo you @Zbysekz gave of an interactive moving object with the detections?
