I am trying to install confluent_kafka on PlcNext, but the pip installer returns errors like the following: root@axcf2152:/opt/plcnext/projects/python# pip install confluent_kafka

Collecting confluent_kafka

Hello diwa130, I assume this is the same issue as in your following post: https://www.plcnext-community.net/en/discussions-2-offcanvas/installing-arm-pxc-linux-gnueabi-gcc.html You would like to compile the „confluent_kafka“ project on the AXCF2152 target. My idea is still to first try to compile the project on the computer with the Linux system and then copy the compilation to AXCF2152. Best Regards, Eduard

Hi, a way with a docker image will be easier at this point. You can find ready-made images for Arm and x86 on google, both official and user-assembled. To install pip, setuptools and wheels it is best to build this from the python sources. You can find instructions here. https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/ Then you have a suitable version in any case. However, as mentioned by Eduard, you will quickly run into the problem that not all packages are available pre-build and you will need gcc. I recommend Docker/Balena. Greetings, Jan
