Error install sentinel-hub

Hi trying to install sentinel hub on windows server 2016 using python 3.6.5

I get as far as:
Running pyproj-2.0.0\setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir C:\Users\99117640\AppData\Local\Temp\3\easy_install-bfrg8axz\pyproj-2.0.0\egg-dist-tmp-wh2cs4fu
error: Setup script exited with Proj executable not found. Please set PROJ_DIR variable.

i’ve tried building and installing from the git clone and using pip
Any help will be greatly appreciated

I also have this same error

Hi guys,

It seems that in last few days ago a new version of pyproj package has been released twice. Currently the latest version is 2.0.1 (link to PyPI). People also reported the same installation problems (link to issues).

At the moment probably the simplest solution is to download and install pyproj package wheel from Windows wheels repository.
