this is my first time running Docker and I am having issues creating the image. This is the code inside my docker file
FROM alpine:latest
ENV PATH /usr/local/bin:$PATH
RUN apk add --no-cache python3 py3-pip
RUN apk add py3-pip && pip3 install --upgrade pip
WORKDIR /backend
COPY . /backend
RUN pip3 install wheel
RUN pip3 install numpy
RUN pip3 --no-cache-dir install -r requirements.txt
Under requirements.txt, I have numpy==1.23.1.
The relevant error codes are
#12 8.606 Building wheel for numpy (pyproject.toml): started
#12 22.30 Building wheel for numpy (pyproject.toml): finished with status 'error'
#12 22.34 ERROR: Could not build wheels for numpy, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
------
executor failed running [/bin/sh -c pip3 install numpy]: exit code: 1
I tried searching for solutions but they mentioned that once you upgraded PIP, things should install fine. In this case, they still do not work well.
Do give any advice!
Try pip3 install --extra-index-url https://alpine-wheels.github.io/index numpy isntead. Does that work? If so, I can explain in an answer
The above comment by FlyingTeller provided a solution for the problem.
