I want to install fastapi using pip in VsCode using

pip install fastapi[all]

but I am getting this huge error. What am I doing wrong?

    The error message says "Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with Microsoft C++ Build Tools". Have you done that? – enzo Dec 26 '21 at 13:49
  • I installed Microsoft Visual C++ 19 and I'm getting the same error. – Krishna Dec 26 '21 at 13:59

    Did you specifically select/enable the Build Tools as part of the installation? See: https://stackoverflow.com/a/55575792/2745495 – Gino Mempin Dec 26 '21 at 14:03

The solution from this post worked:

pip install --only-binary :all: fastapi[all]

u install 'uvicorn' differently?

  • Try to do these commands :

    pip install "uvicorn[standard]"

  • The library needs the VC v14+ runtime library, not VS build tools. You can get the runtime from the MS downloads page. Install the VS 2015/2017/2019 redist as it is the latest version.

  • The question was about fastapi, and from the error message it is about missing "*Microsoft C++ Build Tools*" – Gino Mempin Dec 26 '21 at 13:57
  • I don't want to install everything separately. The fastapi documentation says to use fastapi[all] to install everything at once. BTW It still gives the same error. – Krishna Dec 26 '21 at 14:03

Installing fastapi[all] FROM VS Code

From a Notebook Code Cell in VS Code

You might have only been missing the exclamation mark and/or the quotes ...

!pip install "fastapi[all]"

From a Terminal Shown Within VS Code

$ pip install "fastapi[all]"

Both worked for me from VS Code installed on Linux Mint 20.3

The same principles apply for uvicorn[standard] when you install that.

You can install poetry, which is a new python dependency management tool (equivalent to yarn / npm for Node.js and bundler for ruby) that makes it easier to manage dependencies in your project and beats pip by a mile. It is also very easy to install.

# install command pip install poetry

# Verify the installed version poetry --version

poetry add fastapi uvicorn[standard]
# zsh USE:   poetry add fastapi "uvicorn[standard]"

enter image description here

When poetry installs the dependencies, they are documented in the pyproject.toml file.

    poetry or pipenv and most other package managers still use pip internally. The issue is with this part of the error message: "*error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required.*" which will still happen with poetry. The OP is trying to install `fastapi[all]` which seems to require compiling from source. – Gino Mempin Dec 26 '21 at 14:33
  • No, I don't agree with you, I just provided the viable solution and I use it all the time. Thanks. – Conjure.Li Dec 26 '21 at 14:35
  • The question was "What am I doing wrong?" he didn't ask tell me how to do this differently, or how you do it. – Plazgoth Jun 11 '22 at 11:25
