Creating docker image fails from building mathutils

Hello there,

I have a problem when creating a docker image especially from building the mathutils library.

As far as I know mathutils is required for ifcopenshell.util.shape_builder.ShapeBuilder() class.

When I run this DockerFile:

FROM python:3.10-slim-buster

WORKDIR /app

COPY . /app

RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

The error is:

Running setup.py install for mathutils: finished with status 'error'

error: subprocess-exited-with-error

× Running setup.py install for mathutils did not run successfully.

error: command 'gcc' failed: No such file or directory

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

error: legacy-install-failure

× Encountered error while trying to install package.

╰─> mathutils

When running the DockerFile with these changes:

FROM python:3.10-slim-buster

WORKDIR /app

COPY . /app

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y gcc

RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

I get this error:

import ifcopenshell

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ifcopenshell/init.py", line 69, in <module>

raise ImportError("IfcOpenShell not built for '%s'" % python_distribution)

ImportError: IfcOpenShell not built for 'linux/64bit/python3.10'

Could someone help me out?

Maybe ifcopenshell requires another base image that I am not aware of?

ifcopenshell is mentioned in requirements.txt with ifcopenshell==0.7.0.230523

Any help would be more then appreciated!

Have you investigated the official Docker installation instructions here https://blenderbim.org/docs-python/ifcopenshell-python/installation.html#docker

And then perhaps modify it to include mathutils?

Setting up the docker file like this seems to work:

FROM python:3.11-slim-bullseye 

WORKDIR /app

COPY . /app

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y gcc

RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

EXPOSE 8000

CMD ["python", "main.py"]
