Installing r-text in R gives error Failed to build tokenizers on MAC M1 and M2 chip

When running:

textrpp_install()

this error is thrown:

Failed to build tokenizers
ERROR: Could not build wheels for tokenizers, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
Solution

  • I solved it by opening the terminal in MAC OS to run:

    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

    (I also restarted R and Rstudio)
