[Bug] PackageNotFoundError when getting the version of the current package about fern HOT 8 CLOSED

@maxdeichmann could you share your Fern configuration (e.g. the contents of generators.yml as well as the version within fern.config.json)? We should only default to this if we cannot determine the package being created

Fern config: https://github.com/langfuse/langfuse/blob/main/fern/fern.config.json
Python Generator: https://github.com/langfuse/langfuse/blob/main/fern/apis/server/generators.yml#L13

from fern.

Thanks for looking into this!

from fern.

Ah I see! Yeah this is confusing!

Since you do local publishing and we don't control the pyproject.toml there (or the other project files), we don't know the project name and so we use "project" to try to pull it in from elsewhere, and you can always manually update it and add the file to your .fernignore if necessary (structured similar to a .gitignore, Fern won't touch files listed there on regeneration).

I'll go ahead and remove this from local publishing!

@maxdeichmann could I ask why you're not leveraging github output mode to PR to your repo automatically? https://buildwithfern.com/learn/sdks/guides/github-bot#pull-request-mode

@armandobelardo thanks a lot for the hint to .fernignore. Can you point me to docs on how to use it to exclude https://github.com/langfuse/langfuse-python/blob/63c0fa497dc04d295363158b0ff1be382edb3f10/langfuse/api/version.py
?
I cannot find it in the docs.

I think we do not use the github feature as it did not exist when we set up fern initially.

It's not a well documented feature since there are some downsides! So we tend to not promote it and only suggest it when necessary
Since you're running local generation it's also a touch less relevant anyway

I've released a fix for this in version 1.1.0-rc1 here's the change: #3320
Note that if you are not on 1.0.0, there are breaking configuration changes, to continue with the existing configuration you have today, you must follow the config in the changelog: https://github.com/fern-api/fern/blob/main/generators/python/sdk/CHANGELOG.md#100---2024-04-02

Hi, so i assume i dont have to do anything once the fix is live?

from fern.

That's correct, you can upgrade your generator now actually! It will remove the bad files, and you should be set!
