ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow_text (from versions: none)

[yuyuan20]

I am using macOS version Monterey on my MI Air and for some reasons I can't install tensorflow text even though I installed tensorflow. When I run pip3 install tensorflow_text on terminal it says:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow_text (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for tensorflow_text

I have also tried using pip3 install tensorflow-text but the result is same. Is there any other way I can install this? Please help as I am very new to python. Regards.

We currently do not have a prebuilt pip package for M1s. Our release infra is tied to core tensorflow, so it will remain this way until they provide an option too. See #654

[broken]

That said, we do have targets for building it yourself. View #756 for a healthy discussion on getting this working.

Regarding your failure:

++ sed -i 's/project_version = '\''REPLACE_ME'\''/project_version = '\''2.6.0'\''/' oss_scripts/pip_package/setup.nightly.py
sed: 1: "oss_scripts/pip_package ...": invalid command code o

The command looks different from what is checked in. The double quotes have been translated to single quotes, etc. Did you run some replacement utility over the files?

No, I did this as per the Installation section. I cloned the repo and when I run this command ./oss_scripts/run_build.sh after, this output is what I get. There are no .whl files generated.

Can you look at that file and make sure it mirrors what is here? https://github.com/tensorflow/text/blob/master/oss_scripts/prepare_tf_dep.sh

In particular, look at the types of quotes used. Maybe replace the file manually if possible. The point of this script is to make certain that tf text is building against the version of tensorflow you have installed.

moving discussion here from #756

so far:
script stalls at sed (can potentially be fixed with -e or ' ')

next fail is at grep -> issue is grep version AND not seeing git version for tensorflow python -c 'import tensorflow as tf; print(tf.__git_version__)' returns unknown

@yulsa @yuyuan20 it looks like there are two issues.

1. sed commands are not running correctly
2. tf.git_version is not displaying

The point of this file is to make certain you are building tf text against the same version of tf that you have installed. However, it looks like tensorflow-macos does not populate the git_version variable, and since you are not doing a custom build of TF and building against nightly, you should be able to use the default that is set in the branch.

Thus, you can simply remove the prepare_tf_dep.sh line from the build script and I expect you will be fine.

just tried that. commented out # source oss_scripts/prepare_tf_dep.sh in the build script, and the result fails to build:

maybe there is a way to find the git version manually? can't seem to find anywhere...

retried everything from scratch (recloned git, only change -> comment the source oss_scripts/prepare_tf_dep.sh ub build script. still failed:

I'm in the same spot.

Try updating this file starting at line 48.
/private/var/tmp/_bazel_<yourname>/55d65c43790f28395233053bd8c3ccae/external/local_config_cc/BUILD

cc_toolchain_suite(
    name = "toolchain",

This takes me past that error but onto a new one.

[broken]

what's the new error?

A couple things to confirm:

• Building on TF Text branch 2.7. This has the WORKSPACE set for TF v2.7.x which has worked for others, and 2.7.0 is the latest version of tensorflow-macos.
• Using bazel version 4.2.1. Normally we used 3.7.2 for builds on that branch, but from a different thread, that version doesn't exist so you would have to build it yourself which is troublesome.

ps. FYI; I saw that legacyai shared their built wheel here on the previous PR. I have no idea of the authenticity package, so typical 'use at your own risk' disclaimer.
