See #734 .

https://github.com/mcovalt/jsonnetbin just works and seems damn simple. Please take a look at this repository and include the setup.py configuration inside the official project.

As @Toilal commented use jsonnet-binary. For me, pip install jsonnet-binary fixed the issue.

It works for my issue on Windows Envs. Thx!

@Toilal jsonnet-binary fails to install on windows for python v3.13.0-rc.1, with _jsonnet.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol PyEval_CallObject. Will there be a new jsonnet-binary release that works on python 3.13?

I have also seen that @johnbartholomew merged #1137 which seems to fix windows builds here in the official repo, being actually preferable than jsonnet-binary. Though, I see that jsonnet doesn't release often, the last being v0.20.0, more than a year ago, 17 April 2023. Will there be a jsonnet release that builds on windows by the time that the final python v3.13 comes out?

[mauvilsa]

Just for reference, some time after my comment above, I create a specific issue #1172

[johnbartholomew]

A new release candidate is now available. Since this is the first release for nearly two years, and there have been many changes (not least changes to the build & packaging tools), I am opting to publish an -rc1 pre-release/release candidate first, to give people the opportunity to find any major problems, particularly problems with building or using the new version on platforms and environments that I'm not easily able to test on.

You can find the new release candidate (v0.21.0-rc1) at:

• https://github.com/google/jsonnet/releases/tag/v0.21.0-rc1 [C++ jsonnet, and the main release notes]
• https://github.com/google/go-jsonnet/releases/tag/v0.21.0-rc1 [Go jsonnet]
• https://pypi.org/project/jsonnet/0.21.0rc1/ [Python package using C++ jsonnet; pre-built binaries (wheels) are provided for some flavours of Linux, and for some flavours of Windows]
• https://pypi.org/project/gojsonnet/0.21.0rc1/ [Python package using Go jsonnet; pre-build binaries (wheels) are provided only for some flavours of Linux currently]

[johnbartholomew]

I will optimistically close this as fixed now, but please let me know if the new release candidate doesn't actually work on Windows.
