How to install iGraph python package on Windows?

Hello I'm a beginner in coding in python and I'm trying to install iGraph but I keep getting errors. I have the python version 3.5.1 and I tried to manually download and install iGraph using directions from the official website and also I used PyCharm to automatically download the package but I every time I get some kind of error.

The latest error I get is:

DeprecationWarning: To avoid name collision with the igraph project, this visualization library has been renamed to 'jgraph'. Please upgrade when convenient.

I tried renaming the commands to jgraph but I get other errors that the package was not found.

I would appreciate if anyone could help me out on this one

Thanks

I think you have installed the wrong igraph library.

Maybe you have installed this igraph (0.2.1), while this igraph (0.7.1) is the one you need (and the well-known iGraph).

After you've installed pip, just run below command:

sudo pip uninstall igraph

Then install the python-igraph-0.7.1 package, using either pip or apt-get as mentioned in comments below:

sudo pip install python-igraph

I was getting same error and spent hours resolving. Finally did following.

pip install jgraph

Change code to:

import jgraph as ig

I have python(x,y) and the code ran fine.
