Facing issue when installing jq on centos

When installing jq on centos I am having a problem. I ran the following commands:

yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install autoconf automake libtool python

after that i used pip install jq

and i ran into error like this:

jq.c:8:22: fatal error: pyconfig.h: No such file or directory
#include "pyconfig.h"
                     ^
compilation terminated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

----------------------------------------
Command "/usr/bin/python -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/tmp/pip-build-akuaZu/jq/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__);code=f.read                                                                                        ().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, 'exec'))" 
instal --record /tmp/pip-04CW9h-record/install-record.txt --single-version-externally  
-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-akuaZu/jq/

Can anyone help me?

Just in case anyone is looking for another solution.

This is how I installed on Cent OS 7 and it worked. Make sure you have sudo privilege .

Installer solution



yum install epel-release -y
yum install jq -y
jq --version

the output was jq-1.5

This is how I installed it on CentOS 7:

wget https://github.com/stedolan/jq/releases/download/jq-1.5/jq-linux64 -O jq
chmod +x jq


Then

mv jq /usr/local/bin
