PDF viewer is not working ?

[FeunekMG]

I hadn't noticed that there was an option to install “PDF viewer, Office extraction; includes AGPL PyMuPDF”.
I just ran the following command lines:
git pull
docker compose build --build-arg INSTALL_OPTIONAL=true
docker compose up -d --build

But after adding a PDF to the library, I still get this message:

Failed to load PDF view: PDF viewer requires PyMuPDF. Install optional PDF dependencies with pip install -r requirements-optional.txt (PyMuPDF is AGPL-3.0).

Do you have any idea how to properly configure these options (PDF viewer, Office extraction; includes AGPL PyMuPDF), or is this a bug?

Someone please !

Where did you install the PyMuPDF?

[CanadianFried]

Apparently Odysseus looks for it in the "venv" file. Which was for me was something like: cd /Users/YourUserFolder/odysseus. In there is a "venv" folder. This where I used terminal to install it into.

So in terminal is was:

cd /Users/YourUserFolder/odysseus
./venv/bin/python -m pip install PyMuPDF

This worked for me, but keep in mind on running this on MacOS.

I would reccomend doing the above for the "requirements-optional.txt"

Thanks but I'm runing Odysseus on Win11.
I already try this command but it’s not working

I went to the venv folder in odysseus coppied its path and typed: ./venv/bin/python -m pip install PyMuPDF

and it spit out:

./venv/bin/python : The term './venv/bin/python' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or
operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try
again.
At line:1 char:1

• ./venv/bin/python -m pip install PyMuPDF

•   + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (./venv/bin/python:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
  
  
  
  

So that didn't work.

You can fix it by: source venv/bin/activate && pip install PyMuPDF

This work for me but i'm on linux

I finally managed to fix this on Windows
The issue is that PyMuPDF needs to be installed directly inside the running Docker container to be recognized
Here are the steps that worked for me (on cmd) :
docker ps
docker exec -it [**container name**] /bin/bash (usually odysseus-odysseus-1)
pip install -r requirements-optional.txt (Note: You will see a warning about running as 'root' user; you can safely ignore it since you are inside a Docker container)
exit
docker compose restart
This completely resolved my fckng problem! Hope this helps!

PS : dont forget to update your repo and rebuild the image with the optional dependencies before doing the manip:

git pull
docker compose build --build-arg INSTALL_OPTIONAL=true
