无法在 Apple M1 芯片上安装 google-cloud-aiplatform - 在 grpcio 上失败

Question

Trying to install google-cloud-aiplatform on a Macbook with the M1 Pro chip and it gets stuck trying to install the grpcio dependency.

I am running pip install google-cloud-aiplatform from a Miniforge environment running python 3.9.13.

The error trace is massive, and I can edit to share more if needed but the last few lines say:

error: legacy-install-failure

× Encountered error while trying to install package.
╰─> grpcio

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.

Thanks

Fixed this annoying issue by using pyenv (with python 3.10) rather than Miniforge and installing version 1.44.0 of grpcio before google-cloud-aiplatform . I do not know why this works, so if anybody can shed some light into it that would be great! But if you need to get it working and are ok using pyenv then below are the steps I took (I used brew to install pyenv ):

• Install brew and follow the instructions to update your PATH etc.

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

• Install pyenv and set python version 3.10.3 as the global version:

brew install pyenv
pyenv global 3.10.3

• (Optional) Use pyenv-virtualenv to create your environment:

brew install pyenv-virtualenv
pyenv virtualenv 3.10.3 your_env_name
pyenv activate your_env_name

• Upgrade pip and install grpcio :

pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -v https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/65/75/8b706e1170e2c7b6242b1675259e47986bb4fc490f29387989a965972e6e/grpcio-1.44.0.tar.gz

• Install google-cloud-aiplatform :

pip install google-cloud-aiplatform

Hope this helps!
