PyInstaller cannot find the humanize distribution about humanize HOT 15 CLOSED

The issue is with

You can have a look at the discussion at googleapis/google-cloud-python#1187 and pyinstaller/pyinstaller#2294.

There is a workaround by creating hook-humanize.py and adding it to the hooks of pyinstaller:

from PyInstaller.utils.hooks import copy_metadata

datas = copy_metadata('humanize')

from humanize.

Are you sure that the you have implemented the workaround correctly and that it is still not working? See https://github.com/teampheenix/StarCraft-Casting-Tool for an example:

• Add hook-humanize.py as in https://github.com/teampheenix/StarCraft-Casting-Tool/blob/master/hooks/hook-humanize.py
• Add the directory of hook-humanize.py to the hookspath in the PyInstaller spec-file.

If this is the case, please provide a complete minimal example.

Thanks @2press for providing the workaround.

I've opened pyinstaller/pyinstaller-hooks-contrib#122 to include the hook in the standard PyInstaller hooks districution.

from humanize.

Thank you! pyinstaller/pyinstaller-hooks-contrib#122 has been merged so let's close this.

from humanize.

Thanks for the report.

I'm not familiar with pyinstaller or wx, please can you give me step by step instructions on how to reproduce, along with any necessary config files?

What Python version are you using?

Where is it trying to retrieve the humanize distribution from?

When I change back to the old version（v0.5.5）, there is no such problem

I presume you mean the 0.5.1, which was the last one before 1.0.0.

from humanize.

Also, if it's possible to run wx in verbose mode (maybe wx -v or wx --verbose), that might give more info.

from humanize.

Yes,it is the 0.5.1.Of course, it's only when I use pyinstaller to package. There's no problem when I use it in Python.

I didn't use the library you wrote directly. I used someone else's library. He used your library in his library. His library name is uiautomator2. It's the one with the most stars.

WX-----This is a file I wrote myself. This file is useless.

from humanize.

I can show you the steps. You can restore the environment, but I don't think it's very effective. Because it could be a problem with pyinstaller.

from humanize.

As for pyinstaller, I don't know how he retrieved it. But if I reinstall humanize 0.5.1 and then use pyinstaller to package, there will be no problem

from humanize.

Pyinstaller has a problem with the latest version 3.6. For example,If the version of setuptools is too high, there will be a problem.At that time, I had to reduce the version of my setuptools.Give you a reference：setuptools 45.2.0，this is too high，I use setuptools==40.
For humanize,You can think of the difference between the latest two versions.

I have got the same problem too.

Meanwhile, I am trying to install the version of 0.5.1, the problem is fixed, with the same version of pyinstaller and python.

@RyanLiuF Please use the workaround in #105 (comment).

from humanize.

@hugovk of course, I have tried the workaround , but it doesn't work. thanks for your replay.
