Trying to download h5py, could not build wheels

I am trying to download the h5py package on windows. I am trying to install it with the pip command using a git bash terminal.

I have made sure to have python and some other things to my PATH/Environment Variables. I tried redownloading vscode, and python, tried to update pip and some other commands from this link: https://bobbyhadz.com/blog/python-failed-building-wheel-for-h5py . I was able to succesfully download h5py on my mac, I was wondering if anyone could explain the difference too.

  Loading library to get build settings and version: hdf5.dll
  error: Unable to load dependency HDF5, make sure HDF5 is installed properly
  error: Could not find module 'hdf5.dll' (or one of its dependencies). Try using the full path with constructor syntax.
  [end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ERROR: Failed building wheel for h5p开发者_StackOverflowy Failed to build h5py ERROR: Could not build wheels for h5py, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

This error is usually caused by a failure to build one of the dependencies of h5py. In this case, it appears that the wheel building process for h5py failed, which means that h5py was not installed properly.

To fix this error, you can try the following steps:

Make sure that you have the latest version of pip installed on your system. You can update pip by running the following command:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

Make sure that you have the latest version of setuptools installed on your system. You can update setuptools by running the following command:

python -m pip install --upgrade setuptools

Install the build dependencies for h5py. H5py requires several build dependencies in order to be installed correctly, including Cython and numpy. You can install these dependencies by running the following command:

python -m pip install cython numpy

Clean up the build artifacts for h5py. This will remove any files that were created during the failed build attempt, which will allow you to try building h5py again. To clean up the build artifacts, you can run the following command:

python -m pip install h5py --no-cache-dir --force-reinstall
