I'm using python 3.6.3 on a windows 10 machine. I installed pydot and graphviz using pip install via:
py -m pip install pydot
py -m pip install graphviz
I also went to the graphviz website and downloaded and installed the windows version here: http://www.graphviz.org/Download_windows.php which default installed to program files(x86). But when I go to plot my model in keras, I still get the error saying I have to install pydot and graphviz and that the import failed. I can do
import pydot
import graphviz
on my python console just fine, they throw no errors. What else should I do to be able to graph my neural net?
The path(s) to the installed GraphViz executables (dot
, neato
, etc.) need to be in the PATH
environment variable, in order for pydot
to find them. pydot
used to search for those executables in earlier versions, but not any more.
Also:
pydot
is a Python package.graphviz
is a Python package entirely unrelated to pydot
. These two Python packages do not interact in any way with each other. Installing one of them should suffice (together with GraphViz).See also:
and links from there.
