In 65d0eb7 we commented out the ibm-db2 package because it seemed to have issues on Apple Silicon - did the newer version of the package resolve this?

I can find at least this one for M1 : ibmdb/python-ibmdb#712 . Does it match with what you had observed ?

And, when I try to build Redash on my Apple Silicon Mac using "make up", I got the following error.

yes, correct is ibmdb/python-ibmdb#797 (comment)

[nicof38]

name 'arch_' is not defined

it should be linked to this : ibmdb/python-ibmdb#712
need to install python x64 instead of python arm64, so python intel version.

@yoshiokatsuneo is this something that may be done ? at least tried on M1 to confirm it fixes this issue ?

[yoshiokatsuneo]

@nicof38 I think running intel binary on Apple Silicon requires intel CPU emulation that is too slow to be practical solution...

even without intel, it should work as mentionned in readme here : https://github.com/ibmdb/python-ibmdb/blob/master/README.md#for-macos-m1m2-apple-silicon-chip-system

Can you test it on your side with your M1 ?

[yoshiokatsuneo]

As I mentioned, I tried to use this PR with ibm-db (3.2.7) , but the installing ibm-db failed...

#7581 (comment)

[nicof38]

@yoshiokatsuneo ok, ibm-db package only only state to run on python x64 for M1, which is not the case here, so not working for this platform.
Also, I did not saw anything mentionning that the build platform should be M1 compatible ? Have I missed something ? If multiple build platform have to be supported, it should be good to have a complete list and include include it in the developper section, but it may highly reduce the number of contributor if we have to stick to multiple platform

[yoshiokatsuneo]

And, I just noticed that the documentation says about MacOS on Apple Silicon. But Redash on Mac runs on Docker, so actually it requires to run on Linux on Apple Silicon(ARM), instead of MacOS on Apple Silicon.

[yoshiokatsuneo]

Also, I did not saw anything mentionning that the build platform should be M1 compatible ?

It looks right. there is no official description mentioning about CPU...
There is no description that we support ARM.
And, there is no description that we support Intel.
It may be nice to have the description.

At the same time, nowadays, I feel practically most open source software support ARM and Intel nowadays, and it is common to support both platform nowadays...

Technically, it should be possible to support both platform, and make ibm-db2 available only on intel platform...

[yoshiokatsuneo]

Possibly, we may enable ibm-db only on intel platform on pyproject.tom like below ?

ibm-db = { version = "^3.2.7", markers = "platform_machine == 'x86_64' or platform_machine == 'AMD64'" }

(I only tested on Mac.)

[nicof38]

@yoshiokatsuneo thanks for this one, tested on my side, and working fine also. Gonna modify the PR with this ;)

[yoshiokatsuneo]

@arikfr @eradman

I think this looks OK.
But, I would like to confirm as it introduce platform specific packages.
May I hear your idea ?
