dlopen() failed to load a library: cairo / cairo-2

Question

This is my view:

from django.conf import settings
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.template.loader import render_to_string
import weasyprint
         


        

Answer 1

I had the same error with boxes.py on macOS Mojave. My solution was to install cairocffi with pip3 and cairo with brew. The two commands fail on their own, but together they work for boxes.py:

pip3 install cairocffi
brew install cairo
