seems to be broken out of the box... about pylustrator HOT 8 CLOSED

I am also affected by this error (Ubuntu 16.04, with Jupyter Lab 3.3.2). Whenever I try just to import + start, I get an error that says FileNotFoundError: '/tmp/ipykernel_9442/XXXXXXXX.py' with numbers that change every time, so I guess it is some temporal file. A transparent windows appears, immediately closes, and the notebook prints this error (but the figure is drawn). Fresh installation from today, using just pip. Is there any workaround?

Oh I guess its a problem with jupyter lab. I only implemented it to work with jupyter notebook. It basically tries to look for the file into which to paste the code for saving and apparently does not find the file as it is not started from a file. I haven't worked with jupyter lab yet. I will look into that.

I guess the error is related to that, but there the problem is not limited to Jupyter Lab, since I tried also with Notebook (version 6.4.8) and I do receive the same error. The application works fine if I try to execute it from a python script, there is no problem.

Ah maybe it is then the bug #38 that was fixed in 225e208

You can try to install the current github version with

pip install git+https://github.com/rgerum/pylustrator

and see if the bug still persists.

I cannot say on the previous error because now it gives an entire different problem. EDIT: I'd say the problem comes from the way pip installs the thing, read below.

First, I had to run pip uninstall pylustrator before running the command you suggested because the version has not changed and it is still 1.1.2. This means that pip will not make any changes, so I had to uninstall first. After that I run pip install git+https://github.com/rgerum/pylustrator, installed without problem.

However, when I try to make import pylustrator now I have another error, let me paste the entire log here:

I don't know where this is coming from. Thank you for your support!

EDIT: I have checked the files downloaded and the folder "components" is missing, which seems to be the problem. This is what I have in my Anaconda installation after running the pip install for the git repo:

(base) >> ~/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pylustrator$ ls
arc2bez.py           drag_helper.py          icons             lab_colormap.py  pyjack.py            QtGui.py
ax_rasterisation.py  exception_swallower.py  __init__.py       parse_svg.py     QLinkableWidgets.py  QtShortCuts.py
change_tracker.py    helper_functions.py     jupyter_cells.py  __pycache__      QtGuiDrag.py         snap.py

So it is either some misconfiguration of the repo that does not grab the latest version even with the pip install git+ is called,, or it is ignoring the folders for some reason.

EDIT 2: as a workaround if I manually git clone and then copy the contents of the pylustrator folder into the folder above, where pip installed pylustrator, everything works as expected. Anyway, I think this should be fixed and updated in the pip package itself because if not there will be a big amount of users finding a problem just out of the box.

Oh I forgot to add this subfolder to setup.py. I fixed this in commit 3137d5f. You can try the git+ installation again. And probably the --upgrade was missing from the pip install command I posted:

pip install git+https://github.com/rgerum/pylustrator --upgrade

from pylustrator.

I tried reinstalling and works like a charm. Thank you so so much!!. I would either update the pip packages soon or add a warning at the README so new users don't encounter this problem just after installation :)

I now published a new release. I hope this issue is now solved.
