Installing tensorflow using bazel on windows

Question

I am trying to install tensorflow on windows 10 and I am following this link: https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_sources

I have successfully installed bazel. The problem is when I use this command

$ bazel build --config=opt //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package

to install tensorflow, msys shows the following error.

ERROR: C:/compiler/tensorflow/tensorflow/python/BUILD:4855:1: no such target '@c ython//:cython_binary': target 'cython_binary' not declared in package '' define d by C:/tools/msys64/tmp/_bazel_myaccount/zgdsaeo4/external/cython/BUI LD.bazel

and referenced by '//tensorflow/python:framework/fast_tensor_util.pyx_c ython_translation' ERROR: Analysis of target '//tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package' fai led;

build aborted: Loading failed INFO: Elapsed time: 5.472s FAILED: Build did NOT complete successfully (132 packages loaded)

My guess is, it is looking for /cython folder in the wrong path. However, I have set the python path correctly.

Thanks

I tried to build TF on Windows using bazel. And had the same problem. So as I needed only C++ library, I used the following solution using CMake.

Did you tried running./configure as mentioned here . For windows you should refer
