Unable to install Pygame using pip

问题:

I'm trying to install Pygame. I am running Windows 7 with Enthought Python Distribution. I successfully installed pip, but when I try to install Pygame using pip, I get the following error:

"Could not install requirement Pygame because of HTTP error HTTP error 400: Bad request for URL ..."

I can't find anything about this issue with a Google search, but I did find another Stack Overflow question that prompted the asker to use the following command:

pip install hg+http://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame

This gave me the following error:

Cannot find command hg

I'm not sure what else to do, as everything I find with a Google search is for Mac, so I don't know how well I can follow those instructions on Windows.

Steps to install PyGame using pip

1. Install build dependencies (on linux):

   sudo apt-get build-dep python-pygame
   

2. Install mercurial to use hg (on linux):

   sudo apt-get install mercurial
   

   On Windows you can use the installer: Download

3. Use pip to install PyGame:

   pip install hg+http://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame
   

   If the above gives freetype-config: not found error (on Linux), then try sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev and then repeat 3.

Alternative way:

# Grab source
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame

# Finally build and install
cd pygame
python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install

Try doing this:

sudo apt-get install mercurial
sudo pip install hg+http://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame

An update to this may be required, as it stands in version 1.9.1 it should simply install using:

pip install pygame

However, it look like there is a bug with their pypi repository, see: https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issues/59/pygame-has-no-pypi-page-and-cant-be

So, if you want the most recent release, you have to point directly at the ftp file ala:

pip install http://www.pygame.org/ftp/pygame-1.9.1release.tar.gz

I suppose this will be fixed in the 1.9.2 release but for now this works.

I would note that the answer supplied by Pratyush works as well, but requires the user to install mercurial if they don't have it and downloads the trunk version, so really, not ideal unless you absolutely need it.

Caveat: I'm not familiar with the Enthought Distribution, so this might not help.

As you're trying to install on Windows, if you don't want to have to mess around with C compilers, there are pre-built binary wheels for pygame here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame

Select a package appropriate to you python version[0] and Windows architecture [1]. Download to C:\Users\User\Download\pip install E:\env\pygame-1.9.2a0-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl and install with pip install E:\env\pygame-1.9.2a0-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl

Mercurial binaries can be found on the same page, if you would like to install from source. This method would mean compiling pygame from source, for which you probably want to use this compiler package.

[0] python --version

[1] powershell "gwmi win32_operatingsystem | select osarchitecture"

Install on MAC:

brew install homebrew/python/pygame

回答6:

The command below worked for me on Mac OS X El Capitan:

pip3 install pygame

回答7:

Try

python3 -m pip install -U pygame --user

This worked twice for me on windows 7 and windows 10

回答8:

Just

sudo pip install pygame

worked for me

回答9:

Had this issue on macOS Sierra, where apt-get doesn't work.

Managed to solve the issue through the following steps:

First I had to install the Mercurial via Brew:

brew install mercurial

Then, I had to install Pygame dependencies:

brew install sdl sdl_image sdl_mixer sdl_ttf smpeg portmidi

Finally I used pip3 to install Pygame:

pip3 install pygame

Hope this helps!

The most current, best way to install pygame is always available at: https://www.pygame.org/wiki/GettingStarted

How to use pip depends on the operating system. So unless you have always updating and tested answers for 15 different operating systems then just send people to that page. All answers to this question are wrong for various different operating systems.

Currently, for windows, this is the way to install it in the cmd prompt. (If you already have pip installed, and people know what pip is... best just send people to the GettingStarted page).

py -m pip install pygame --user

I did use these instructions here from the official site.
But i had to change the python3 part of the command to just py.

I have never used Enthought distribution, but you could try to use Anaconda distribution which is also great too.

Anaconda Distribution (Any OS):

From the docs:

Update conda to the current version. Type the following:

conda update conda

If a newer version of conda is available, type y to update: Proceed ([y]/n)? y

Check to see if a package you have not installed named “pygame” is available from the Anaconda repository (must be connected to the Internet):

conda search pygame

Conda displays a list of all packages with that name on the Anaconda repository, so we know it is available.

Install this package into the current environment:

conda install pygame

Check to see if the newly installed program is in this environment:

conda list

Install on Windows (both python 2.7 and 3.7):

pip install pygame 

Install on raspberry pi:

sudo pip3 install pygame (python 3.7)
sudo pip install pygame (python 2.7)

回答13:

Try: python -m pip install pygame

Or: py -m pip install pygame

回答14:

I think if you go to Command Prompt and type

py -m pip install pygame

that's what works for me
