Geographic Information Systems Asked by pat-s on November 25, 2020
I am trying to talk to the PyQGIS API for use in a 3rd party application using the offical .dmg image provided on the QGIS homepage.
After setting PYTHONPATH to /Applications/QGIS3.4.app/Contents/Resources/python and initializing everything as stated in https://docs.qgis.org/3.4/en/docs/pyqgis_developer_cookbook/intro.html#using-pyqgis-in-custom-applications, I am facing the following error when running from PyQt5.QtGui import or from qgis import *:
ImportError: dlopen(/Applications/QGIS3.4.app/Contents/Resources/python/PyQt5/QtGui.so, 2): Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framework/QtGui
Referenced from: /Applications/QGIS3.4.app/Contents/Resources/python/PyQt5/QtGui.so
Reason: image not found
Looks like I need to set some linkers or similar?
Side facts:
– I have no problems when using the homebrew version of QGIS).
– I am on macOS 10.14.6 (Mojave)
A solution is to add the QGIS app binaries to the path to replace MacOS Python3 with the embed QGIS Python3, so, as PYTHONPATH :
export PATH="/Applications/QGIS3.4.app/Contents/MacOS/bin:$PATH"
and if necessary, if the Qt platform can't load correctly, following this answer :
export QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH=/Applications/QGIS3.4.app/Contents/PlugIns
export GDAL_DATA=/Applications/QGIS3.4.app/Contents/Resources/gdal
