I tried the paraview + trame example:
[https://kitware.github.io/trame/docs/tutorial-paraview.html](https://kitware.github.io/trame/docs/tutorial-paraview.html)
I got it working, but the steps on the website did not work for me.
In the tutorial, this step did not work for me:
> ~/Codes/ParaView-5.11.0-RC2-MPI-Linux-Python3.9-x86\_64/bin/pvpython
> ./05\_paraview/SimpleCone.py
> –venv .pvenv
> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘trame’
But if I do this, the example works:
> conda activate pv-env
> python 05\_paraview/SimpleCone.py --port 1234
Not sure if this matters in practice?
Also not sure how to get it working by directly calling paraview’s pvpython.

The following worked for me
```bash
conda deactivate # make sure I don't have a blend of conda and local venv
unset PV_VENV # make sure I don't have a global venv set for ParaView
git clone https://github.com/Kitware/trame.git
python3.9 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install trame
/Applications/ParaView-5.10.1.app/Contents/bin/pvpython ./trame/examples/07_paraview/SimpleCone/RemoteRendering.py --port 1234 --venv .venv
```

And the tutorial one worked for me too
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Kitware/trame-tutorial.git
/Applications/ParaView-5.10.1.app/Contents/bin/pvpython ./trame-tutorial/05_paraview/SimpleCone.py --port 1234 --venv .venv

I use ParaView-5.12.0 and try this.
/Applications/ParaView-5.12.0/bin/pvpython ./trame-tutorial/05\_paraview/SimpleCone.py --port 1234 --venv .pvenv
Then I got these information.
Thank you for help.

Can you try to run the following with your ParaView?
```bash
/data/ease/trame/paraview-5.12/bin/pvpython
$ from paraview import simple
$ cone = simple.Cone()
$ representation = simple.Show(cone)
$ view = simple.Render()
```

Something is up with your ParaView. But don’t know what it is. Where does it come from?

If MEDReader is available in VTK or ParaView, trame should support it.

Please note MEDReader is only available as an external plugin which is packaged in the binary release of ParaView and can be enabled in the ParaView superbuild.

Important. Please, will the latest Paraview work with VTK using MED file?

Yes, assuming you are talking about the binary release from [https://www.paraview.org/download/](https://www.paraview.org/download/)
