The *macosx_10_14_x86_64.whl wheels won't run natively on an ARM mac, but you can run OSX x86_64 applications in emulation mode.
One relatively easy option to get python in emulation mode is to run everything in a conda env for OSX x86_64.
-
Download and install miniconda3: https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.pkg
(You could also use miniforge or another conda installer. We do have native spacy OSX ARM64 packages on the
conda-forgechannel, and at some point there will hopefully be native spacy and prodigy wheels, but our build infrastructure doesn't support it yet.) -
Restart your terminal so that it updates the path/conda settings.
-
Create a new conda env with python3.8 and activate it:
conda create -n prodigy python=3.8 conda activate prodigy -
Install
prodigy:pip install prodigy-1.10.5-cp36.cp37.cp38-cp36m.cp37m.cp38-macosx_10_14_x86_64.whl
When you're working in this conda env, it should be just like working on an intel/x86_64 mac.
You can also do something similar by creating/using a terminal app that runs in emulation mode and being careful to install/run everything from this terminal. Here's one tutorial on setting up a Terminal for x86. Then use the system /usr/bin/python3 to create a venv and install prodigy from there. If you accidentally mix up your terminals or venvs I think things may break in unexpected ways, so the conda setup with x86-only python may be easier to manage.
