Is LightGBM available for Mac M1?

Question

My goal is to learn a notebook. It has recall 97% while I am struggling with F1 Score ‘Attrited Customer’ 77.9%. The problem is the notebook uses LightGBM. I am unable to install LightGBM.

What I’ve tried:

pip install lightgbm -> it throws error python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.
Then, I did pip install whell -> now it throws error python setup.py bdist_wheel did not run successfully.
Then, I did pip install Cmake, pip install --upgrade pip setuptools, brew install libomp -> the error persisted.

The full error

  × python setup.py bdist_wheel did not run successfully.
  │ exit code: 1
  ╰─> [80 lines of output]

As of this writing, no official release of lightgbm (the Python package for LightGBM) supports the M1 Macs (which us ARM chips).

osx-arm64 builds of lightgbm are supported by the lightgbm conda-forge feedstock, so you can install lightgbm on an M1 Mac using conda.

conda install 
   --yes 
   -c conda-forge 
   'lightgbm>=3.3.3'

Progress towards officially supporting M1 Mac builds of LightGBM can be tracked in microsoft/LightGBM#5269 and microsoft/LightGBM#5328.
