Hi,

I tried to install Solace Python API on Mac M1 and run some scripts with it.

pip install solace-pubsubplus

⇒ Successful

Running some script:

Unable to load core library from [/Users/uherbst/Library/Python/3.11/lib/python/site-packages/solace/messaging/lib/macosx-x86_64/libsolclient.dylib].

Is this expected to work ? Couldn't find any hint in Solace docs.

I tried the same action in an Ubuntu on Mac M1 - same result.

Thank you

Uli

    Hi Uli,

    Support for ARM based platforms (Mac M1 running MacOS and Linux) is actively in development and we expect to release packages in 2024.

    Is there a timeline for when the arm packages will be released? I'd like to avoid using x86_64 if I can.

    Thanks.

    The API will be available at PyPI by March 15, 2024.

    Hi @Misk,

    Yes! The March release should work with all Mac M series chips. An official announcement post should come next month upon release :)

    Is there an update on this?

    I checked the blog posts and searched the forum but don't see anything new about the ARM release.

    Thank you.

    Hi @jrt,

    We have had to postpone the release until April to give us some additional time to include another important feature in the next Python release. I will make a post and come back to this thread as well to notify everyone once it is available for download.

    Thank you for your patience!
