ERROR: Failed building wheel for numpy , ERROR: Could not build wheels for numpy, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects


I`m using python poetry(https://python-poetry.org/) for dependency management in my project.

Though when I`m running poetry install, its giving me below error.

ERROR: Failed building wheel for numpy
  Failed to build numpy
  ERROR: Could not build wheels for numpy, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I`m having python 3.9 installed in my laptop.
I installed numpy 1.21.5 using pip install numpy, I even tried to down version it to 1.19.5.

Though I`m getting the same error.

I found out many people are getting ERROR: Failed building wheel for numpy this error in python 3.10, they solved it by down versioning python to 3.9, though that didnt working for me.


Solution

  • I solved it by doing the following steps:-

    1. I updated the pyproject.toml(This file contains all the library/dependency/dev dependency)with the numpy version that I installed using pip install numpy command. enter image description here

    2. Run poetry lock to update poetry.lock file(contains details information about the library) enter image description here

    3. Run poetry install again, & it should work fine.
