MacOS client ImportError: cannot load library /usr/local/lib/libgridstore.0.dylib

[AnggaSuherman]

Environment:

• macOS Big Sur v11.6.5
• python version: 3.10.0b4

Steps to produce the issue:

#Created virtual env via pyenv
pyenv virtualenv 3.10.0b4 onDemand
#Could not activate so had to run the following
eval "$(pyenv init --path)"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
eval "$(pyenv virtualenv-init -)"
#Activated virtual env
pyenv activate onDemand
#Installed libraries
python -m pip install pandas
python -m pip install griddb_python

When running the sample app, the following message appeared:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/Angga/Documents/GitHub/OnDemandTraining/Python/tutorial.py", line 3, in <module>
    import griddb_python as griddb
  File "/Users/Angga/.pyenv/versions/3.10.0b4/envs/onDemand/lib/python3.10/site-packages/griddb_python.py", line 21, in <module>
    import _griddb_python

Sorry for late reply.

Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgridstore.0.dylib

The libgridstore.0.dylib means GridDB C Client library.

Because the package for GridDB Python Client already includes C Client Library, so you don't need install GridDB C Client on MacOS.

But you must set the path installed GridDB C Client Libraries to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH .

Example:
~/.pyenv/versions/3.6.9/lib/python3.6/site-packages/griddb/

To get the path/to/python/site-packages (after installing griddb_python):

$ python3 -m pip show griddb_python

It will display the output similar to:

Name: griddb-python
Version: 0.8.5

You can find the path/to/python/site-packages at Location: field.

Before running the program that use griddb_python, please export path/to/python/site-packages to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:

Example:
$ export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:/Users/xxx/.pyenv/versions/3.6.9/lib/python3.6/site-packages"
