Unable to install uszipcode
-
After rebooting the iPad, that actually worked!! Amazing! Although I notice one of my other well functioning scripts stopped working. Is that because all of the newly installed modules somehow mess up previously working ones?
-
@JonB
Now everything is hunky-dory. Thanks for your help, Jon. I would have given up long ago. -
Could be... You'd have to look at the tracebacks to see what is failing. Check site-packages-3 and make sure you don't have any modules elsewhere named the same as one of the ones in the top level site-packages-3.
-
my question is bellow
Cannot import module 'scripts.test': cannot import name 'ExtendedBase' from 'uszipcode.pkg.sqlalchemy_mate'
Why is this -
Can you please post the full traceback?
uszipcode loves to try to import modules, then simply catch the exceptions and pass without error, making debugging it super annoying.
It appears you must have sqlalchemy installed in order to pass that import. Try installing sqlalchemy (see discussion above -- I don't think it will actually succeed, but there are just certain files that are needed to get past this specific error)

I try to install SQLAlchemy, it says I have already installed it

Do you have MSA Zip code mapping data?
-
Ok, the problem is likely one of the imports from extended_declarative_base.
Try each of these in the console, and see which breaks.from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker from sqlalchemy.orm.session import Session from sqlalchemy.engine.base import Engine from sqlalchemy.exc import IntegrityError from sqlalchemy.orm.exc import FlushError from sqlalchemy.inspection import inspect
-
Can be imported normally

Umm, what device and app are you running this on?
This forum is for the pythonista app on iOS. This looks like you are running Mac or LInux.As a general suggestion though, you should temporarily edit
your site-packages/uszipcode/pkg/sqlalchemy_mate/init.py, and change the "pass" to "raise". One of the 3 imports in that file are failing, but because he is just hiding the exception, you can't see what fails until model.py doesn't see ExtendedBase.Also, the place to go may be the uszipcode github:
https://github.com/MacHu-GWU/uszipcode-project/issues/48
Since you are using 1.4.4 of sqlalchemy, looks like you are going to have failures.One workaround is to use
pip3 install SQLAlchemy==1.3.23or, you could implement the fixes found here
