@nbhupendra do you run this command inside aster directory?

[shaohailin]

@fink-stanislav thanks for your reply! i have solved the problem.
there are two ways to solve it
method1. if you are inside aster directory ,run the command : protoc *.proto --python_out=.
or
method2. if you are inside aster's parent directory，run the command :protoc aster/protos/.proto --python_out=.

Is it protos or proto? Because the child directory is named protos (plural). Spelling matters. Does it matter here?

Regardless , neither protos nor proto works.

Current directory:
/Users/me/aster
( I assume this is was you mean by "inside aster directory").
Aster directory looks like this:

├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── builders
├── c_ops
├── convnets
├── core
├── data
├── data_decoders
├── demo
├── demo.py
├── eval.py
├── eval_util.py
├── evaluator.py
├── experiments
├── meta_architectures
├── overview.png
├── predictors
├── protos
├── tools
├── train.py
├── trainer.py
└── utils
I run the command: protoc *.proto --python_out=.
*.proto: No such file or directory

Maybe its the spelling:: protoc *.protos --python_out=.
*.protos: No such file or directory

If you're in the aster directory (for example, /Users/me/aster), the command should be protoc protos/*.proto --python_out=..
