unable to install bigfloat in osx, command 'clang' failed with exit status 1

I'm trying to install bigfloat in OSX Sierra with:

pip install bigfloat

But I'm receiving this error:

    mpfr.c:343:10: fatal error: 'gmp.h' file not found
    #include "gmp.h"
             ^
    1 error generated.
    error: command 'clang' failed with exit status 1

    ----------------------------------------

I already installed Xcode and ran: 

xcode-select --install

How can I solve this?

For anyone else with the issue, this worked for me:

brew install gmp mpfr
env "CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include -L/opt/homebrew/lib" pip install bigfloat

It looks like you're missing GMP, if you use brew make sure to install both GMP and MPFR with brew install gmp mpfr, they're both prerequisites.
