[FR] Python 3.12 support

[mandeep]

Hi all,

Any plans to support Python 3.12?

I didn't see anything previously mentioned about this on the issue tracker.

[deeleeramone]

There are still a large number of packages that still do not support 3.12. For example, any library that relies on setuptools is not able to migrate. It's definitely on the, "would be nice to have", list; but it's not clear when it can be a reality because there are a lot of external factors.

On my installation (macOS), python3.12 (from brew) fails due to the pinned dependency on numpy 1.23.4. However, numpy 2.x.x installs fine in a python3.12 venv. Could openbb be made to work with numpy 2.0.0? I'm sure there would be other bits that would also need to be updated to remove the need for setuptools too but numpy 2.x.x is python3.12 compatible

[deeleeramone]

It's probably better to not use Homebrew for your Python environments because this will contaminate environment isolation with system PATH injection of Python libraries. This is especially evident when using venv and system installations of Python.

As for Python 3.12, Numpy is not the blocking element in the dependency chain.

If you are 'pinned' at 1.23.4, then you may be using version 3 of OpenBB.

The version of Numpy installed will depend on all the other extensions and components that are installed, but at minimum you should be with version 1.24.

You can also manually update any package from PyPI and ignore the warning messages indicating version conflicts. The code may or may not work because of breaking syntax.

I am also having the same issue. I have

I have numpy installed ── numpy [required: >=1.16.5, installed: 1.26.4]

However, I am unable to download openBB due to this error.

How can i fix this?

[deeleeramone]

This is resolved with #6572

[alexchandel]

A similar error exists on 3.13. Any way we can update these ancient dependencies to the latest?
