I have been trying to install zipline on OSX 10.11.2.
The pip install fails with this error:
$ pip install zipline

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/sj/py2gp2555d15c757mxtpwmn80000gn/T/pip-build-se3cq5/bcolz
I checked my numpy version, it's 1.10.2:
$ python
Python 2.7.11 (default, Dec 5 2015, 14:44:53)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 7.0.0 (clang-700.1.76)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import numpy
>>> numpy.version.version
'1.10.2'
I tried installing bcolz separately (and it installed successfully) but that didn't solve the problem.
$ pip install -I zipline
didn't work either.
Any ideas about what I should do to install zipline?
EDIT: I ran pip install bcolz and the version installed was 0.12.1:
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/bcolz$ cat version.py
# coding: utf-8
# file generated by setuptools_scm
# don't change, don't track in version control
version = '0.12.1'
Answering my question in case anyone had the same issue. I ended up installing zipline using Anacaonda instead and it worked out alright. The package changes were:
