No matching distribution found for pywin32==306 unstructured-inference docker error

[hasansustcse13]

I have installed the unstructured-inference by following command.
pip install unstructured-inference

And this package installed this (unstructured-inference==0.7.11)

Installing collected packages: pywin32, pytz, pyreadline3, mpmath, flatbuffers, antlr4-python3-runtime, urllib3, tzdata, typing-extensions, sympy, six, safetensors, regex, rapidfuzz, pyyaml, python-multipart, pypdfium2, pyparsing,
 pycparser, protobuf, portalocker, pillow, packaging, numpy, networkx, MarkupSafe, kiwisolver, idna, humanfriendly, fsspec, fonttools, filelock, cycler, colorama, charset-normalizer, certifi, tqdm, scipy, requests, python-dateutil

And I have a docker file to build a docker image:

# Use the official Python 3.10 image as the base image
FROM python:3.10-slim

# Set the working directory inside the container
WORKDIR /app

# Copy the requirements.txt file into the container
COPY requirements.txt /app/

# Install project dependencies
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt


# Copy the project code into the container
COPY . /app/

But this gives the following error:

#8 65.86 ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pywin32==306 (from versions: none)
#8 65.86 ERROR: No matching distribution found for pywin32==306

I encountered this problem too. Have you solved it?

It's been some time, but if someone comes across this thread:

I've had the same problem, which is that you're using Debian (linux) version of python (FROM python:3.10-slim), so it does not have the package pywin32, because the package is meant only for windows (it allows the unstructured library to use win32 API if it runs on win32).

Fix it by adding ;sys_platform == 'win32' after the requirement, e.g., pywin32==308;sys_platform == 'win32' in the requirement.txt file which tells the pip to install the package only if the target platform is win32.
