can't install package cartopy

[swnesbitt]

I tried installing Scitools' cartopy package

!pip install geos
!pip install pyproj
!pip install cartopy

and the installer reports errors.

Yes, there seem to be a few problems here:

1. As with your initial report, before cython is installed, pip hung with no output. I'm going to look into that.
2. Once you get past that, you need a handful of additional packages.

I think this is a complete recipe:

!apt-get install libproj-dev proj-data proj-bin
!apt-get install libgeos-dev
!pip install cython
!pip install cartopy

LMK if that doesn't get you unstuck. (I'll keep this open for the first issue until I know more.)

[craigcitro]

oic -- the "freeze before cython is installed" was actually "craig is too impatient to wait for output to start appearing".

so the remaining issue here was cartopy install instructions; the above seems to work, and I'll add them to the install snippets.

@swnesbitt LMK if you're still blocked.

[swnesbitt]

unstuck! thanks.

I'm having trouble installing Cartopy with the same test as above. The error printed in colab is:

Geometry must be a Point or LineString

and the error in the log is:

python3: geos_ts_c.cpp:3991: int GEOSCoordSeq_getSize_r(GEOSContextHandle_t, const geos::geom::CoordinateSequence*, unsigned int*): Assertion `0 != cs' failed.

[colaboratory-team]

See SciTools/cartopy#1346 (comment):

To install in Colab on Ubuntu using pip, you need to install the library dependencies:

!apt-get install -qq libgdal-dev libproj-dev
Then !pip install cartopy works.

[jrieffel]

No luck:

!apt-get install -qq libgdal-dev libproj-dev
!pip install cartopy
import cartopy.crs as ccrs
import cartopy.feature as cfeature
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
ax = plt.axes(projection=ccrs.PlateCarree())
ax.coastlines()
plt.show()

produces the same error.

Had to install one more

apt install python3-dev

[felnne]

I recently hit issues with this too, specifically the issue @jrieffel mentioned, which I was I was able to resolve by following the advice from SciTools/cartopy#871.

In case it's useful to others my install is:

# not using `python-cartopy` package as it doesn't include all build dependencies
!apt-get install libproj-dev proj-bin proj-data
!apt-get install libgeos-dev

# shapely needs to be reinstalled to use the same geos install as cartopy (https://github.com/SciTools/cartopy/issues/871)
!pip uninstall -y shapely
!pip install --no-binary shapely shapely
!pip install cartopy

This then produces output with something like:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import cartopy.crs as ccrs
import cartopy.feature as cfeature

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1, projection=ccrs.PlateCarree())
ax.set_extent([80, 170, -45, 30], crs=ccrs.PlateCarree())

ax.stock_img()
ax.add_feature(cfeature.LAND)
ax.add_feature(cfeature.COASTLINE)

plt.show()
