pydot and graphviz error: Couldn't import dot_parser, loading of dot files will not be possible

Question

When I run a very simple code with pydot

import pydot
graph = pydot.Dot(graph_type=\'graph\')

for i in range(3):

  edge = pydot.Edge(\"king\", \"lord%d\" %         


        

Answer 1

I had the problem again and my above solution did not work. If that is true for you and you are also using Anaconda on a Mac with El Capitan, try this:

conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/RMG graphviz`
conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/RMG pydot
