No matching distribution found for vtk error

I tried to use pip install vtk but I faced an error.

https://i.sstatic.net/piSTo.png

"ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement vtk (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for vtk"

I tried:

  1. Installing both 32-bit and 64-bit
  2. Installing all versions of python from 3.5 to 3.8
  3. Upgrading pip

and also used Anaconda, I installed it properly but still not working in python and is not identified in cmd by vtk --version.

Help me, please Thanks

Each version of Python supports some special versions of VTK. As you are using Python 3.8 you should use VTK versions below 9.0.

Able to install vtk on python3.8 directly from the source. Follow below commands, it is a bit time taking to build the wheel but would definitely install vtk. Download the version you want to install, in my case i installed the latest 9.1.0 from https://vtk.org/download/

//extract the downloaded file.
mkdir VTK_BUILD
cd VTK_BUILD
cmake -GNinja -DVTK_WHEEL_BUILD=ON -DVTK_WRAP_PYTHON=ON {vtk source path}
ninja
python3 setup.py bdist_wheel

copy path to VTK_BUILD add vtk build paths to the bashrc file to set the path.

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:{copied build path}
    export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:{copied build path}

This should install vtk.

vtk 8.1.2 was released at Nov 29, 2018. The release provides a number of wheels but not for Python 3.8.

Use Python 3.7 (64-bit required). Or compile from sources.
