No module named 'somePython' when using remote_repo about httpimport HOT 4 CLOSED

Well, the Gitlab is a bit of a pain, and it has some known bugs. It works for some repos but not for all and it has to be re-examined and relaunched.

Yet, the code snippet you are posting does not work and there are reasons for that:

• If you want to load from Github, then use the github_repo directly as it provides enough abstraction:

from httpimport import github_repo
import httpimport

with github_repo('BillMills', 'python-package-example', module='myPackage'):
    import myPackage.somePython

but this fails also with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test2.py", line 7, in <module>
    import myPackage.somePython
  File "/Users/johntorakis/.virtualenvs/httpimport/lib/python3.7/site-packages/httpimport.py", line 254, in load_module
    exec(final_src, mod.__dict__)
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'somePython'

the __init__.py tries to import somePython.py without using the full module name.

My bet is that if you replace this line with import myPackage.somePython, the code I posted should work.

Why your code fails

the URL you are using makes httpimport to traverse from inside the package, so as it is looking for a package named myPackage in this directory, it fails.
Additionally, you need a URL that when appended with filenames (e.g somePython.py) it will return the raw file. Such URL for that Github repo is https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BillMills/python-package-example/master/myPackage/. Check the raw.githubusercontent.com domain.

If you replace the code with:

with remote_repo(['somePython'], 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BillMills/python-package-example/master/myPackage/'):
    import somePython

it will work.

For me it was:

>>> from httpimport import remote_repo
>>> import httpimport
>>> with remote_repo(['somePython'], 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BillMills/python-package-example/master/myPackage/'):
...     import somePython
...

    exec(final_src, mod.__dict__)
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy'

as somePython.py tries to import numpy in the first line, which I don't have (and it is not needed in the script anyway).

from httpimport.

I have run that code but i still have error in importing

this is my repo link

and this is my code

with httpimport.github_repo('AKHACKER-program4hack', 'searcher', branch='master'):
    import searcher.forsearch
    s = forsearch.Searcher()
    s.printuser()

And i am getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/ak/Desktop/development/pythonwork/testing/httpimport/testing.py", line 8, in <module>
    s = forsearch.Searcher()
NameError: name 'forsearch' is not defined

Can you tell me what's the problem

You are having a Python error, not related with httpimport.

with httpimport.github_repo('AKHACKER-program4hack', 'searcher', branch='master'):
    import searcher.forsearch
    s = searcher.forsearch.Searcher()
    s.printuser()

This works for me!
