json import error

[tw00]

When starting bravo I get the following error:

File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Bravo-1.0-py2.6.egg/bravo/serializers/json.py", line 12, in <module>
    raise ImportError("Couldn't find a JSON library!")
ImportError: Couldn't find a JSON library!

I think it's because in json.py there is an "import json", which in this case refers to json.py instead of json the library.

Off the top of my head, this shouldn't be the case because relative module imports don't include the modules themselves. Try it; a test.py with "import test" in it won't cause a recursive import. I'll see if I can reproduce this tomorrow.

This is what I get:

tw@machine: ~/minecraft_server/_test $ cat json.py
import json
def foo(): pass
print (json)

tw@machine: ~/minecraft_server/_test $ python2.6 json.py
<module 'json' from '/home/tw/minecraft_server/_test/json.py'>
<module 'json' from '/home/tw/minecraft_server/_test/json.py'>

tw@machine: ~/minecraft_server/_test2 $ cat test.py 
import json
def bar(): pass
print(json)

tw@machine: ~/minecraft_server/_test2 $ python2.6 test.py 
<module 'json' from '/usr/lib64/python2.6/json/__init__.pyc'>

Btw. awesome project! Keep it up!

Bizarre; I just reproduced this on a fresh Gentoo box with Python 2.6. I guess the JSON imports need to be cleaned up at some point.

JSON's no longer the default, so I'm closing this.
