Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

I am working on a network that does not allow me to install software to the C drive. Is there a way I can still use ImageMagick with Python?

See Python Wand at http://docs.wand-py.org/en/0.4.4/. But I think it needs to be installed.

Also see the Web-Based ImageMagick at http://www.imagemagick.org/MagickStudio

Is this a Windows network? I think you can install to any drive you like. Just give the desired directory in the installation dialogue.

I have tried to install it and immediately it says I need to be logged in as an administrator, even right clicking and install as an admin doesn't work

So the problem is a lack of Administrator privileges.

Perhaps the "portable" version doesn't require Admin. I don't know.

Failing that, you'll have to ask an Administrator to install for you.

IS there a portable version of ImageMagick? Or were you referring to a portable version of python/pycharm?
I am able to install things to my own drive, but it does not give me the option when running the .exe for ImageMagick (the directory it installs to is not customizable that I can see).

From your mention of drive C, I assume you are on Windows. Is that correct?

See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/download.php#windows for the portable version of IM.

The directory path should be an option during installation. If it isn't, I suggest you report it in the Bugs forum at http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-se ... um.php?f=3

I wonder how I can run the portable from python or pycharm though?
