See #734 .

https://github.com/mcovalt/jsonnetbin just works and seems damn simple. Please take a look at this repository and include the setup.py configuration inside the official project.

As @Toilal commented use jsonnet-binary. For me, pip install jsonnet-binary fixed the issue.

It works for my issue on Windows Envs. Thx!

@Toilal jsonnet-binary fails to install on windows for python v3.13.0-rc.1, with _jsonnet.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol PyEval_CallObject. Will there be a new jsonnet-binary release that works on python 3.13?

I have also seen that @johnbartholomew merged #1137 which seems to fix windows builds here in the official repo, being actually preferable than jsonnet-binary. Though, I see that jsonnet doesn't release often, the last being v0.20.0, more than a year ago, 17 April 2023. Will there be a jsonnet release that builds on windows by the time that the final python v3.13 comes out?

Just for reference, some time after my comment above, I create a specific issue https://github.com/google/jsonnet/issues/1172
