Description

I am new to the bazel build tool, when i am trying to install psycopg2, its failing with error message ld: library not found for -lssl, how can i pass LD_LIBRARY_PATH to rules_python

🌍 Your Environment

Anything else relevant? When i am trying to install without bazel its installing and working as expected, its happening only inside bazel

Have you tried using the psycopg2-binary package instead? It ships pre-built binary wheels.

[hariharasudhan-nineleaps]

Yes it is working, but using psycopg2-binary is not recommended for all right https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html#psycopg-vs-psycopg-binary

Also what should i do, in-case if some other library requires lssl which doesn't have binary like this?

You can use: bazel build //:myproject --action_env=MYENV=myvalue to set the environment variable. Or you can build your own version of lib SSL, or you can include the library in your own source tree and have pip pick it up.

@hariharasudhan-nineleaps take a look at: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/issues/48 if you want to host or build your own lib ssl.

@hariharasudhan-nineleaps take a look at: #48 if you want to host or build your own lib ssl.

Thank you for this! This is what I did to get around this for now but I really want to come back and provide a proper fix for this later. I think some of the work @jvolkman has been doing on shipping cross platform python packages may be part of that but I need to take a deeper look and see if it's feasable to start using in my repo.

for now this fixed it but it will break at some point if brew info openssl path ever changes.

In my .bazelrc file.
