Installation in Git Bash

[ColinMoldenhauer]

After battling with the installation of the dependencies, I finally managed to build everything without errors. However, when trying to use the python bindings, I receive the following error in exactextract/__init__.py in the this line: from ._exactextract import __version__

ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _exactextract: The specified module could not be found.

Any idea what could have gone wrong? I also can't call exactextract from the command line.

For installation, I used the following command, switching the make command to cmake --build . as the make command failed for me (if anyone has an idea why no makefile is present, let me know). I also had to add the flag -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=$HOME in order to avoid permission issues while installing. Could any of these changes be the culprit?

git clone git@github.com:isciences/exactextract.git dependencies/exactextract
cd dependencies/exactextract
mkdir cmake-build-release
cd cmake-build-release
cmake -DBUILD_CLI:=OFF -DBUILD_DOC:=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=$HOME ..
# make    # gives error   'make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.'
cmake --build .

cd project_root/dependencies/exactextract
pip install .

Are you installing the package? It should work to run pip install . from the root of the repository.

Sorry, forgot to mention it, I am installing it. It also appears in my environment, but all imports from _exactextract are failing due to above error
