Error finding numpy in vs code

[MarcellGranat]

Bug description

My issue is that quarto cannot found numpy package if the file is rendered in vs code. Works perfectly RStudio, or if a cell is simple ran, but fails if I try to render the file. I enclose a pic about the error message.

Checklist

Hi there, thanks for reporting this. There is some kind of tangle up regarding Python and multiple architectures going on here. This isn't really related to the Quarto VS Code extension but more to how your particular shell is configured and how VS Code constructs terminal environments. Unfortunately it's nearly impossible for us to debug this without having direct hands on your system.

If you run this Google search you'll see others with the same problem and explore whether their solutions would work for you: "multiarray import error need arm64 have x86_64"

Note also that the Quarto VS Code extension will automatically use the currently configured Python version (as specified via the "Python: Select Interpreter" command).

I have the same issue - I am able to run the sample code in a python console in the terminal environment that clicking on render button creates.

If I try and re-run the quarto command after this, I get the same error as reported above.

I get a disconnect when I run the codes suggested by this issue - nteract/hydrogen#2147
Rendering with Quarto incorrectly returns X86 as the platform, while VS Code returns ARM64

The code I ran was

import platform
platform.machine()

Hope this helps, thanks

@MarcellGranat and @iainmwallace do you both have a M1 or M2 Mac?

I have M1 pro chip

This is a Python setup issue.
For instance, I have no issue at all:

---
title: "Quarto Playground"
format: html
---

This is a playground for Quarto.

```{python}
import numpy

print("works!")
```

So to keep this issue open, we would need to have the exact steps to reproduce this error and actual code to work with.
