Hi, .image.so is a hidden file in home directory created while run
rainbowstream.

I'am using rainbowstream from AUR, but on Manjaro, Precisely it is
running on python 3.5, so you can try uninstall and compile against
packages from python 3, for example python-setuptools instead
python2-setuptools.

Check your rainbowstream what version of python is calling:

nano /usr/bin/rainbowstream

#!/usr/bin/python

or

#!/usr/bin/python2

if is version 2, try deleting the number 2, so:

#!/usr/bin/python

and run again rainbowstream

Another option is to check if all dependencies are installed.

Greetings.

Sorry I checked the /usr/bin/rainbowstream and it was with the python2 shebang, I reinstalled it with python3 and and I have the following message

I installed rainbowstream with pip from the git repo

Thank you

Using python2, python2-pillow (or python2-pil) manage the image's issues.

Greetings.

HI @Xevib . Need to specify that RainbowStream only can be installed via pip but not directly from this repo. This repo does not contains Twitter API key information so you got that "No module named rainbowstream.consumer".

I see you have all Python 2 and 3. You should pick only one and try The quick way or The recommend way in README.md

[Xevib]

Thank you I installed it using pip in python3 version and it worked

[cavkirov]

I've always installed rainbowstream the quick way but now I have the same issue as outlined here about the .image.so file. It was running under python2.7, so I've now got it installed under python3.5, but still same thing. Not sure what else I should do?

[cavkirov]

Just installed the recommended way and got the same error.

[cavkirov]

Ended up copying the .image.so file from another computer and it worked/

[ransur0t]

I experienced the same issue with the missing ~/.image.so file on an install using the recommended way on a system running Debian stretch. Per @cavkirov, I copied the file from another pc with a functional rainbow stream installation to solve to problem.

[woohgit]

The problem here is the missing C compiler on those systems.

rainbowstream would compile it automatically, but doesn't handle the missing C compiler. It does not give you any error. What it does is actually:

$ cc -fPIC -shared -o ~/.image.so ./lib/python3.5/site-packages/rainbowstream/image.c

So all you need to do is install the c compiler and re-run rainbowstream and voila. On ubuntu you can do it via:

sudo apt-get install build-essentials

[OrangeTsar]

Ran into this issue on gallium and solus, @alfrex 's first response took care of it on gallium, @woohgit pointed me in the direction for solus, where the command to get the C compiler is
sudo eopkg install -c system.devel and then reinstalling with pip. No need to copy files from other computers.
