ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'XXXXX'. version 2018.6.25

[ikosenn]

After updating to version: 2018.6.25. I get the error as shown in the image attached. facematic is the package name in setup.py. I get the error while running the command pipenv install -e .

Steps to replicate

1. Get a python package
2. Run pipenv install -e .

[ikosenn]

On a different package. This time I used the command pipenv install --dev

I've had the same error after upgrading to v2018.6.25.

Could you share your setup.py?

Hi @ikosenn, thanks for using pipenv! In addition to the setup.py can we see the directory structure?

I'm having the exact same issue:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'versioneer'

See https://gist.github.com/seglberg/97c47832d2997d47b345c189fbb1aad4

[erinxocon]

@seglberg is your repo public and something I could pull down for testing? I can't seem to replicate the issue.

[mmellison]

No, it is private. I can create a sample repository that reproduces the error. Hang tight.

I would first point out it is against best practice to import your library in its setup.py. It creates a chicken-egg problem—Usually the user cannot import dependencies before your package is installed, but without running setup.py pip cannot resolve dependencies for the user.

I would recommend adopting on of the top solutions mentioned in the Python Packaging User Guide.

pipenv install fails inside the python directory

We are not importing any of the package's modules inside setup, we import a top-level, standalone module which generates our version information. My initial thought is that its a python path issue.

[uranusjr]

Ah, I see, sorry for the misunderstanding. Indeed this seems to be a path issue. Also we should probably be more resilient when reading the package name.

[mmellison]

If I modify my setup.py, it works:

HERE = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
sys.path.append(HERE)
import versioneer

So definitely a path issue.

Thanks for the reports all, fix will be out shortly

Well done for getting a fix in the master out so quickly.
