apk build fails with requirements.txt

[praskuma]

There is something strange I observed.

As long as there is no requirements.txt or requiremnets.txt is empty

flet build apk --verbose works fine

The moment you add a module(let it be any module) to requirements,txt, "flet build apk --verbose" gets stuck at "Extracting Python distributive from"

OS: Windows Flet : 0.22.0

The same problem with me

[JustinMissmahl]

same problem here trying to build a apk including web3

flet==0.22.1 aiohttp==3.9.5 web3==7.0.0b5

[praskuma]

Can someone please look into this or give some clue. Not able to create apk

[baseplate-admin]

@praskuma, the reason you cant build that apk is because

Yfinance internally depends on:

• numpy
• pandas
• html5lib
• lxml

These are native applications and they probably dont have a recipe in the python-for-android repo

The moment you add a module(let it be any module) to requirements,txt,

To be honest flet support for any module is lackluster at this moment. If you want to see support of flet for modern android you should follow this repo

[baseplate-admin]

@JustinMissmahl, aiohttp is not available for android

[praskuma]

@baseplate-admin thanks for the details.

Sure i will try out

https://github.com/flet-dev/python-mobile and update.

[baseplate-admin]

@praskuma, python-mobile will be used internally by flet.

@FeodorFitsner can update you on this
