Brand new to coding etc about openbbterminal

[DidierRLopes]

Hey @tingletoys,

I'm dedicating this weekend to make sure that this process of installation is drastically improved. Just bear with me as I had to learn some new things along the way. :)

I wasn't able to run it either, got an "illegal hardware instruction" error. First time I've seen it on a python script. Maybe something in there doesn't play well with the M1 cpu...?

Try opening up an interactive python interpreter and just try to import flair and tensorflow. I was getting "illegal instruction" errors too and was able to trace it down to those two imports. I commented out those imports (flair is imported by sentiment/twitter_api.py and tensorflow is imported in prediction_techniques/neural_networks.py) and I was able to get everything else to run.

My Python setup is a bit unusual (I run it in a Proxmox container which I then ssh to using Visual Studio code) so I think it has some issues with some modules that are GPU based.

@tingletoys can you tell us what you've done to run it? Glancing at the code, it looks like running python gamestonk_terminal.py should execute the terminal, but there are a few prerequisite steps if you haven't already handled them

Look at #41 for a link to a guide on getting going.

Hey Joao,

I've never seen that either. But from a quick search online it appears to be related with tensorflow. Have a look at this thread apple/tensorflow_macos#143

Hope it helps!
