Failed to import fitz on IBM Cloud Function

[anilomanwar]

I am facing the same issue as #430 for IBM Cloud Function (similar to AWS Lambda)

I have used same build step
"pip install PyMuPDF -t ." in deployment step and can see folder structure
mentioned in #430 (comment)

In My code,

import fitz

and getting below error -
"2020-11-26T07:23:33.653912Z stderr: Traceback (most recent call last):",
"2020-11-26T07:23:33.653966Z stderr: File "exec__.py", line 42, in ",

"2020-11-26T07:23:33.786Z stderr: The action did not initialize or run as expected. Log data might be missing."

I tried 2-3 ways doing this but getting same issue
like
"pip install PyMuPDF"
"pip install PyMuPDF==1.16.10 -t ."
"pip install PyMuPDF==1.18.10 -t ."

I am using other packages like pypdf, pdfminer using same way and they are working fine but not this one..

Not got any issues during build step only getting issue for import statement.

The other packages you mentioned are all pure Python - that's why the are working without issues.
Your problem goes back to the fact that PyMuPDF is not.
To solve, please find out how your cloud provider supports uploading packages containing binaries.
The procedure presumably is different with every provider and has nothing to do with PyMuPDF itself.

I am not using any of these services so regrettably cannot help.
