support for m1 macs

[seanmacavaney]

pip install fastrank

Fails on M1 macs. I have a built wheel that you could upload to pypi, if you like.

I'm off next week, so I'll try and get Github to build that variant. If not I'd be glad to have your binary.

[seanmacavaney]

Awesome, thanks! Feel free to reach out. The trick to getting it to build for me was setting maturin==0.13.7. Perhaps the wheel doesn't need to be distributed directly if this change is made.

@seanmacavaney do you still need Python3.6 support? Seems to have been dropped by github actions, so I'll be dropping it as well.

[jjfiv]

Going to assume no, from PyPI there's a >=3.7 on PyTerrier.

Didn't mean to close it with the PR, just link it.

Hopefully this new wheel works on your M1 Mac: https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/c0/14/97ecf03788bc18194964de42976e0b0e9817716dd7c3988ba9b2965f4cb8/fastrank-0.8.0-py3-none-macosx_10_9_x86_64.macosx_11_0_arm64.macosx_10_9_universal2.whl

Works perfectly, thanks!

No need on my end for python<=3.6
