'Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) … error' when installing numpy on VS code (Fantasy Football Data Pros: Data Munging with Pandas)

Question:

So I was trying to install numpy 1.20.3, on VS Code, when it says:

  Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) ... error
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

I am installing it like this:

(venv) PS C:Users_OneDriveDesktopVOR-Models2021-VOR-Model> pip install -r requirements.txt

Because I am so lost, I will show you requirements.txt. This function literally installs everything before numpy, then it fails.

clearbeautifulsoup4==4.9.3
certifi==2021.5.30
chardet==4.0.0
idna==2.10
numpy==1.20.3
pandas==1.2.4
python-dateutil==2.8.1
pytz==2021.1
requests==2.25.1
six==1.16.0
soupsieve==2.2.1
urllib3==1.26.5

Any help is appreciated. The reason I am doing this is because I took a course online (https://www.fantasyfootballdatapros.com/), and am trying to do data munging with pandas. I need NumPy for that. I also tried looking at other questions, but they didn’t give me the answers I needed, or didn’t have an answer at all. Please help.

It says it in the error message.

RuntimeWarning: NumPy 1.20.3 may not yet support Python 3.10.

Two quick trys:

  1. Without looking through each packages, try removing numpy from requirements, and run "python -m pip install -r requirements.txt" again. Then in command line, try typing this to see if it installed because the other packages (ex. Tensorflow install numpy automatically, with the version it depends on).

python -m numpy

  1. try a lower numpy version. inside requirments.txt try typing or something under 1.20.3

numpy==1.19.2

Answered By: Chase

The same happened to me. So, I deleted the version of my numpy. Then, the requirements.txt worked well.

If you use python 3.10 , the numpy version 1.24.2 should work fine
