如何在 Google App Engine Flexible 上使用最新版本的 pandas

Question

I am using Google App Engine Flexible with a standard Python 3 runtime. I had been using pandas 1.0.5 until now. I want to start using pandas 1.3.4. So I updated requirements.txt and tried deploying to GAE. I got an error

Step #1: ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pandas==1.3.4 (from -r requirements.txt (line 16)) (from versions: 0.1, 0.2, 0.3.0, 0.4.0, 0.4.1, 0.4.2, 0.4.3, 0.5.0, 0.6.0, 0.6.1, 0.7.0, 0.7.1, 0.7.2, 0.7.3, 0.8.0, 0.8.1, 0.9.0, 0.9.1, 0.10.0, 0.10.1, 0.11.0, 0.12.0, 0.13.0, 0.13.1, 0.14.0, 0.14.1, 0.15.0, 0.15.1, 0.15.2, 0.16.0, 0.16.1, 0.16.2, 0.17.0, 0.17.1, 0.18.0, 0.18.1, 0.19.0, 0.19.1, 0.19.2, 0.20.0, 0.20.1, 0.20.2, 0.20.3, 0.21.0, 0.21.1, 0.22.0, 0.23.0, 0.23.1, 0.23.2, 0.23.3, 0.23.4, 0.24.0, 0.24.1, 0.24.2, 0.25.0, 0.25.1, 0.25.2, 0.25.3, 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2, 1.0.3, 1.0.4, 1.0.5, 1.1.0, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3, 1.1.4, 1.1.5)

I see that the latest pandas version it lists is 1.1.5, even though pandas 1.3.4 is available.

1. How often does GCloud update the package versions that are available on its standard runtimes?

2. Is the version availability related to the version of pip that is part of the custom runtime?

3. Is there any way I can use the latest version of packages without having to build a custom runtime?

Answer 1

My original app.yaml had python_version: 3 . The Google Cloud docshere state that python_version: 3 in app.yaml refers to Python 3.7.2 . However, the build logs contained a line RUN virtualenv --no-download /env -p python3.6 .

SOLUTION : Change the config to python_version: 3.7 . Now the corresponding line in the build log says RUN virtualenv --no-download /env -p python3.7 .
