AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'add_to_builtins'

After installing via pip (python 2.7.6) I keep getting this error

generate_library --input=drumroll.v1.json --language=java --output_dir=/test

I believe this is a problem with Django 1.8. Try downgrading to 1.7.

sudo pip uninstall django
sudo pip install django==1.7.7

[FaisalAbid]

Yes this was the problem, that fixed it.

[aiuto]

Re-opening so people can find it.

[aiuto]

whoops. reopen again.

[FaisalAbid]

Ha okay cool!

[mcohoon]

I think that the problem is that this library needs to be updated on pypi

[aiuto]

I have no problems using 1.8. Perhaps the problem is really 1.8. I have not migrated to that yet.

[aiuto]

setup.py fixed in b584f76

[tswast]

I hit this issue today, too. We should release a version with the fix to pypi, if it is indeed fixed.

[tswast]

I'm getting this error when building from source, too, not just the pypi package. The setup.py script is installing django 1.9rc1

$ pip uninstall django
$ python setup.py install --user
$ pip show django
---
Metadata-Version: 1.1
Name: Django
Version: 1.9rc1

After changing to exactly version 1.8.12, the generate_library command works again.

was this ever done as a PR? I ran into the same problem, used the 1.7.7 library and it worked

[tswast]

We just pushed the change to fix this. Sorry, it was fixed in our internal repo but never synced the change back.

[mtucker6784]

Oh no it's all good. Thank you for getting all this together!

@tswast Any chance this fix can be deployed to PyPi?

[cramertj]

I hit this error today, so this is still an issue. If this is fixed internally, it'd be nice if it could be synced.

[aiuto]

IIIRC, this is a Django version mismatch. AFAIK, there have been no changes to the version of Django we are working against.

[cramertj]

Yes, it is a version mismatch. However, it means that the README instructions (pip install google-apis-client-generator and then run the script) don't work.

[cramertj]

Looks like there's even an open PR to fix it (#18).

[tswast]

This is fixed in the latest version. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/google-apis-client-generator/1.4.3

@jeffkpayne Just released it today. Sorry it took so long for me to figure out how to get access to release the version to PyPI.

@aiuto @SurferJeffAtGoogle I believe we can close this.
