Google Colab install geosnap error #184

swagluke commented 1 year ago

Description of the bug

Trying to install geosnap on Google Colab but running into issue with "Building wheels for collected packages: tables" I've tried following command to fix the issue but without any luck.

I've confirmed that tables is installed properly. (3.8.1.dev0) - !pip install tables --upgrade
Upgrading wheel and setuptools - !pip install wheel setuptools pip --upgrade
Upgrading cmake - !pip install cmake --upgrade

Environment

Operating system: Linux 9e7b8fb3f067 5.15.109+ #1 SMP Fri Jun 9 10:57:30 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Python version: Python 3.10.6
Geosnap version: geosnap-0.11.0

Paste the code that reproduces the issue here:

thanks for raising this, though I honestly don't think there's a fix on our end. Ultimately this is an issue with the tables package, not geosnap

Colab tends to cause headaches because it requires pip and doesn't play nicely with conda (if I were you, I'd request anaconda support over there). Pip is pretty unreliable (for exactly this reason), so we only support conda installs for users. I'm going to close this as out of scope, since it seems specific to colab+pip, though feel free to reopen if you run into problems using the recommended install route. Maybe give codespaces or binder a try instead if you need to run in the cloud

Thank you for the fast response. I retried it today with Google Colab and it's working now. Not sure if Colab had a recent system update or not.

i think you can thank @smmaurer for that. I think he got a new release of pandana out the door that fixes the outdated tables dependency

anyway, glad its working for you!
