Hi, I’m learning to use nimare now, and I’m following steps in the example.
But when running code “download_neurosynth.py”, bug came out as follow:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/prot/NiMARE/Neurosynth/download_neurosynth.py”, line 24, in
from neurosynth.base.dataset import download
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘neurosynth’

I’ve tried in geany and pycharm, and the same bug came out. Can anyone helps? Thank you.

Hi siyang,

In order to download the Neurosynth dataset using that code, you will need to install the Neurosynth Python package. You can use pip for that if you want:

pip install neurosynth

Alternatively, you could download the data directly from the associated GitHub repository: https://github.com/neurosynth/neurosynth-data. You will need to uncompress current_data.tar.gz to get the database.txt and features.txt files though.

Best,
Taylor
