Install `python-snappy` (fatal error: snappy-c.h: No such file or directory)

1

Hi there,

when installing python-snappy for snappy support in motor, this results in the following error:

fatal error: snappy-c.h: No such file or directory

According to web-research, this is because the development headers are missing; based on the Linux Distro in use, this missing package is named differently:

DEB-based: sudo apt-get install libsnappy-dev

RPM-based: sudo yum install csnappy-devel

Alpine (Docker) apk add --no-cache snappy-dev g++

openSUSE: sudo zypper in snappy-devel

(How) can this be done with Render?

Hi,

OS-level libraries can’t be installed on Render Native Runtimes, using package managers, e.g. apt-get.

You’d need to use Docker to set up the environment with the custom libraries your project requires.
