TypeError: 'staticmethod' object is not callable

[Ex-monsters]

Describe the error

Once I've installed the conda environment, after installing the dependencies in the requirements, executing manimgl comes up. The installation configuration is the reference https://docs.manim.org.cn/.

Code and Error

Code: (manim) E:\manim>manimgl

Error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "E:\anaconda\envs\manim\lib\runpy.py", line 194, in _run_module_as_main return run_code(code, main_globals, None, File "E:\anaconda\envs\manim\lib\runpy.py", line 87, in run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "E:\anaconda\envs\manim\Scripts\manimgl.exe_main.py", line 4, in File "E:\manim\manimlib_init.py", line 14, in from manimlib.animation.animation import * File "E:\manim\manimlib\animation\animation.py", line 5, in from manimlib.mobject.mobject import _AnimationBuilder File "E:\manim\manimlib\mobject\mobject.py", line 64, in class Mobject(object): File "E:\manim\manimlib\mobject\mobject.py", line 230, in Mobject def set_data(self, data: np.ndarray) -> Self: TypeError: 'staticmethod' object is not callable

I upgraded from Python 3.8 to 3.10! Hope that helps

I solved it by commenting out all @staticmethod line in file mobject.py and scene.py.

In your environment, they are:

"E:\manim\manimlib\mobject\mobject.py"

"E:\manim\manimlib\scene\scene.py"

So try to replace all the @staticmethod by # @staticmethod in these two files.

The comment above about python 3.10 helped me. This was on OSX

For noobs here is a tutorial : `run python -V and see if you have an old python version. I had 3.9.

You might need to download python3.10. I had several python versions, and for. me 3.10 vas available at python3.10 -V ->

Locate python 3.10 or higher and create a virtual environment using it.

python3.10 -m venv venv

Then , activate the venv

source venv/bin/activate

Now, you can try to use the python command again, and now the version is 3.10 `python -V (should give you 3.10 or more)

Then install run pip install -e .

Then run the example manimgl example_scenes.py OpeningManimExample

Currently working python version to me is 3.10.14 (3.12 (numpy) and 3.9 (@staticmethod) both fall to my compiler)

(On M1 MacOS 15.0-beta)

[thebinij]

Working just fine (without changing anything) with python 3.11.4 on M1 Pro 2020 (macOS 15.0.1).

updating python to 3.10 may be useful

[boring180]

Change from 3.9 to 3.10 and solve. I hope this is useful.

[dumohan0302]

Hey, have you already solved this error? I upgraded my Python to 3.10.0, but it still doesn't work. 😭

[boring180]

My Python version is Python 3.10.15 Followin is my pip list Package Version
