Ch10/01 - Global Forecasting Models: AttributeError: 'CountEncoder' object has no attribute 'get_feature_names' about modern-time-series-forecasting-with-python HOT 5 OPEN

I can fix this error by simply running following commands,
python -m pip install --upgrade scikit-learn & pip install -U scikit-learn
python -m pip install --upgrade category_encoders & pip install -U category_encoders

from modern-time-series-forecasting-with-python.

Hello,

In my case I had no problem but I just checked and I have 2 different packages (category-encoders, category_encoders) , both are version 2.6.0

I hope it helps you on something

from modern-time-series-forecasting-with-python.

I added this function at 242

        self._encoded_categorical_features = copy.deepcopy(
            self.feature_config.categorical_features
        )
**def get_feature_names(self, input_features=None):
    if input_features is None:
        return self.columns
    else:
        return input_features**

def fit(
    self,

Also I change 291 to the following:

            ), f"These categorical features are not handled by the categorical_encoder : {missing_cat_cols}"
        X = self._cat_encoder.fit_transform(X, y)
        X_encoded = self._cat_encoder.fit_transform(X, y)
        **self._encoded_categorical_features = [col for col in X_encoded.columns if col not in self.feature_config.continuous_features + self.feature_config.boolean_features]
    else:
        self._encoded_categorical_features = []

Hi. Thanks for the comment, however I do not think these are 2 separate packages. The category-encoders is name of the package on pip server while category_encoders is the name you use when importing the package in python

#21 Should have fixed this. It would be nice if someone can check and confirm
