Problems with scipy package import when using mwpython

9 views (last 30 days)
I have created a Python package with MATLAB Compiler SDK (R2018a). I have been able to include that package and execute functions in Python, but have been having trouble with including other Python packages in my Python script. I am on a Mac and as such I have to use the Matlab script mwpython to run my Matlab generated Python packages. When I try to import scipy.io I get the following:
CEFNS-Mavericks:~ mws22$ mwpython

As you can see, the import of scipy works fine, but scipy.io throws an error that I can't seem to figure out. What is weird is that if I run >>python rather than >>mwpython the scipy.io imports just fine. That lead me to think it was a problem with my sys path variable. In mwpython, when I do import sys and sys.path I get:
'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages'
'/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages'
'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python27.zip'
'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7'
'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/plat-darwin'

'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload'
'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/aeosa'
In mwpython, when I do import sys and sys.path I get:
'/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages'
'/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages'
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python27.zip'
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7'

'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-tk'
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-old'
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload'
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages'
They both point to /Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages where I know scipy is installed (io is a subdirectory of scipy).
I am at a loss as to what to do to be able to use scipy and my MATLAB generated python packages in the same program. Any help would be appreciated.

A related note: I am having the same problem with matplotlib. I can import matplotlib just fine, but matplotlib.pyplot throws the following:
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as platform
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 31, in <module>
import matplotlib.colorbar

import matplotlib.contour as contour
File "/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/contour.py", line 20, in <module>
import matplotlib.font_manager as font_manager
File "/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/font_manager.py", line 55, in <module>
from matplotlib import afm, cbook, ft2font, rcParams, get_cachedir
ImportError: dlopen(/Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/ft2font.so, 2): Library not loaded: @rpath/libfreetype.6.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/mws22/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/ft2font.so
Reason: Incompatible library version: ft2font.so requires version 21.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 18.0.0
