[conda] Cannot import Esri's arcpy into jupyter notebook

[Hugo]

Hi

I have followed instructions about making anaconda compatible with Esri's
arcpy implementation in

https://gisday.wordpress.com/2016/07/18/setting-up-anaconda-pysal-with-arcgis-python-environment/

In particular I have imported all the .pth files from python to anaconda
and vice versa (but I have put them in the site-packages folders, as I
found some other instructions about that.)

When I open a jupyter notebook and try the import statement i.e.

import arcpy

I get the following error:

ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)<ipython-input-1-50d283eebbb3> in <module>()----> 1 import arcpy
C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\ArcPy\arcpy\__init__.py in <module>() 20 import numpy 21 ---> 22 from arcpy.geoprocessing import gp 23 from arcpy.geoprocessing import env 24 from arcpy.geoprocessing._base import gptooldoc as _gptooldoc
C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\ArcPy\arcpy\geoprocessing\__init__.py in <module>() 12 # 13 #email: ---> 14 from _base import *
ImportError: No module named '_base'


I am on ArcGIS Desktop 10.5 and anaconda 3. Note however that I also have
ArcGIS for Server, ArcGIS Pro and Portal for ArcGIS installed in the same
environment.

I have tried to add several path entries into the .pth file I import into
the site-packages folder of anaconda, but some of them stop the jupyter
notebook from firing up altogether.

By default, by desktop.pth file from Esri't python installation contains
the following entries:

C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\bin
C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\ArcPy
C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\ArcToolBox\Scripts

I have executed, in the Esri environment:

import sys
print.sys.path

and then added all the returned path entries to the desktop.pth file in the
anaconda site-packages folder, but when I do this, the jupyter notebook
fails to open.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Hugo

ArcPro now uses Miniconda, so that should be easy.

Another simple way is using archook package. It can be called using pip
directly from Jupyter Notebook.
