Intro

Just some quick notes. see history for date info.

Install Kivy on 2.7 installation of Spyder


Google

looks like might be good try https://kivy.org/docs/installation/installation-windows.html


nice music no words, not my cup of tea

First try

https://kivyinstaller.readthedocs.io/en/master/usage.html#install-to-existing-python

D:\apps\Anaconda D:\apps\Anaconda\KivyInstaller-master.zip

now running in cmd.exe

Ran as directed and after a lot of work got error messages, including that it failed. I have a log.

Tried again this time was going to answere admistritor n, but got quick error out.

Tried uninstall both with and without admin priv. for cmd.exe

So now I seem stuck with a partial installation.


Try again

looks like might be good try https://kivy.org/docs/installation/installation-windows.html


Will use cmd and give admin


this seemed to work but when I tried ( as stated in the docs )

That’s it. You should now be able to import kivy in python or run a basic example:

python share\kivy-examples\demo\showcase\main.py

the file was not found either by python or by me or by a search of my drive

Assuming Kivy is Somewhere on my system

Found other examples on git hub at https://github.com/kivy/kivy Downloaded unzipped, but when I tried to run the first line import kivy fails.


Now a couple of hours into trying to install this f*** and wonder why it should be so obscure. Why use when even the install does not seem to work?
