Local Development Error "No module named 'qnt'"

EDDIEE

Hi guys, local development doesn't work.
I followed all the steps for installing local development.

I run "conda activate qntdev"
Then I create a Jupyter Notebook in this folder:
"C:\Users\baiti\anaconda3\envs\qntdev"

But when I run this Notebook I get always the error: "No module named 'qnt'"

Can you help me out?

@eddiee Hi, local development works fine. The procedure for using Jupyter Notebook is:

conda activate qntdev;
then install jupyter as follows in the qntdev environment:

conda install notebook python=3.7

deactivate and reactivate env as follows:

conda deactivate
conda activate qntdev

"C:\Users\baiti\anaconda3\envs\qntdev\bin\jupyter notebook"

(note the bin!)

Then try just to download data as follows:

import os
os.environ["API_KEY"]= "your key here"

import qnt.data as qndata

futures_data= qndata.futures.load_data(tail=365*16, dims=("time","field","asset"))

Sorry, but it still doesn't work.

What should I do after step 4? I guess, I can't just type python commands in the powershell. How can I open the right Jupyter Notebook?

@eddiee Try step 4 without quotes, this should start jupyter notebook. And if that's your real API-key we see in the image, delete your last post. It's a bad idea to post it in a public forum

@eddiee Hi, please follow @antinomy recommendation. We deleted your post with API key, that should not be shared for security.

Thanks for your support, I really appreciate, together we are better!

This is how I solved the step four issue:

Kind Regards

Hello friends,

how can I update my local development to the Q18 contest? Loading nasdaq data doesn't work.
