Pyleargist setup instructions

1. Download the archive here: https://pypi.org/project/pyleargist/#files

2. Replace the setup.py file with this snippet below which replaces occurrences of file() with open() for Python 3 compatibility.

    from setuptools import setup
    from setuptools.extension import Extension
    from Cython.Distutils import build_ext
    import sys, os
    import numpy as np
   
    version = open('VERSION.txt').read().strip()
   
    setup(name='pyleargist',
          version=version,
          description="GIST Image descriptor for scene recognition",
          long_description=open('README.txt').read(),
          classifiers=[], # Get strings from http://pypi.python.org/pypi?%3Aaction=list_classifiers
          keywords=('image-processing computer-vision scene-recognition'),
          author='Olivier Grisel',
          author_email='olivier.grisel@ensta.org',
          url='http://www.bitbucket.org/ogrisel/pyleargist/src/tip/',
          license='PSL',
          package_dir={'': 'src'},
          cmdclass = {"build_ext": build_ext},
          ext_modules=[
              Extension(
                  'leargist', [
                      'lear_gist/standalone_image.c',
                      'lear_gist/gist.c',
                      'src/leargist.pyx',
                  ],
                  libraries=['m', 'fftw3f'],
                  include_dirs=[np.get_include(), 'lear_gist',],
                  extra_compile_args=['-DUSE_GIST', '-DSTANDALONE_GIST'],
              ),
          ],
          )
   

3. Run python setup.py build If this gives you the error gcc exited with status 1 scroll up to see if the leargist.pxd file is missing. If it is missing in the src directory, download it from Bitbucket Once you do this, run python setup.py build again. Now this step should succeed.

4. Run sudo python setup.py install. If you get an error for Cython.Distutils not being found, check whether you're using the right version of Python using which python. Alternatively, sometimes sudo picks up the wrong Python path, so give it the Python3 absolute path. For e.g.,

sudo /home/user/anaconda3/bin/python setup.py install.

Thank you. This setup.py worked after editing but import leargist is not working. I have also tried adding leargist.pxd in the directory. please help with it.
