It works!
After much trial and error, my tools work perfectly and I am able to code, make, commit, and push to GitHub. I ran into a few issues and problems when trying to install the tools, but I eventually got it working. I will document the problems and the successes of this week.
All tools installed
I downloaded, VS Code, Brew, and followed all of the commands in the Tools Setup. I used commands like “jupyter –version” to make sure everything was installed and good to go. All tools were installed.
nbconvert Error
However, I ran into a problem with making. Even after I verified my nbconvert existed and was the right version with “jupyter –version”, it still would say that it was missing in the terminal when I tried to make. I redid the whole setup guide at least 2 more times, but I kept running into the same issue. I asked Mr. Mortensen and he was able to diagnose what the issue was, but couldn’t find a fix. A student in the class as the time was able to fix it. However, it was only a temperary fix that broke again. I managed to fix it by going to an older version of the setup guide and running these commands:
- pip install nbconvert # library for notebook conversion
- pip install nbformat # notebook file utility
- pip install pyyaml # notebook frontmatter
This fixed the error and I was successfully able to make. Picture of error is below.
