Apple has deprecated use of OpenSSL in favor of its own TLS and crypto libraries. This means that you will need to install and export some OpenSSL settings yourself, before you can install viz-python-lib:

brew install openssl

and then use the following commands:

export CFLAGS="-I$(brew --prefix openssl)/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L$(brew --prefix openssl)/lib"

pip install viz-python-lib

Manual installation:

Install poetry

cd viz-python-lib/
poetry install

Basic read query example:

from viz import Client
from pprint import pprint

node = 'wss://node.viz.cx/ws'

viz = Client(node=node)
pprint(viz.info())

viz.rpc.some_rpc_method()
