I'm trying to use Essentia in Python, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to install it, I have no clue what's going on in the install page. Can someone walk me through on how to do it?

  • what's the OS you want to use Essentia? – Dyno Fu Mar 05 '15 at 22:03

  • To compile and install Essentia you need to go through the same process as you would go through when installing any self-compiled library. Look for "compile pyd file under windows" and "setup visual studio for python". something like this. Please keep us up to date. – User Mar 06 '15 at 01:21
  • There is no python binding for windows for this library right now. May be they will be implemented later. – VMAtm Apr 12 '16 at 19:22

Well, now it's 2018 and there are bindings and the install page looks pretty clear.

There are instructions available for Linux, Mac and compiling from source for Python. Windows seems a bit more iffy and maybe you'd want to try the dockerized version.

Hopefully, now there'll be one less 3-year-old unanswered question in the queue.
