taskwiki fails with `AttributeError: module 'vim' has no attribute 'find_module'` #183

beuerle · 2018-08-07T10:15:03Z

Since some updates (I'm on Arch Linux) I am no longer able to use taskwiki (most recent revision). I get the following error message when opening any vimwiki file:

Any ideas?

Probably an issue with vim (+python). Closing now.

bbugyi200 · 2018-08-07T20:23:49Z

@beuerle Were you able to get this working? I'm experiencing the same issue.

bbugyi200 · 2018-08-07T23:09:33Z

For anyone else that stumbles across this problem, I was able to silence these errors by making a few changes to the util.py module. Specifically, by commenting out both the import to pkg_resources and the following lines (which make use of this package):

https://github.com/tbabej/taskwiki/blob/b5caafd302e2467656447a1cebc2e37773a9fa3b/taskwiki/util.py#L373-L379

It looks like this only disables a dependency check for tasklib. So no major damage done.

beuerle · 2018-08-08T08:18:28Z

@bbugyi200 no, I wasn't. But after the update(s) I got the same error with the python-mode vim plugin, so I reckon it has nothing to do with taskwiki?

[..]
line    1:
    loader = importer.find_module(packageName)
Press ENTER or type command to continue
Error detected while processing /home/user/dotfiles/vim/bundle/python-mode/autoload/pymode/lint.vim:
line    1:
AttributeError: module 'vim' has no attribute 'find_module'

The problem is connected to recent (vim+) python update. Not sure why exactly, and I don't have the time right now to figure it out.

I can confirm that this patch works.

tbabej · 2018-08-09T03:30:41Z

Upgraded to Python 3.7, but I can't reproduce this guys.

beuerle · 2018-08-14T08:17:43Z

Updated vim today from

VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Aug  1 2018 12:30:25)
Included patches: 1-194

to

VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Aug 13 2018 14:59:01)
Included patches: 1-279

but the problem still persists.

geblanco · 2018-09-13T08:18:21Z

I have the same issue but didn't try the patch, instead, as the problem is python 3.7 related, you can set let g:taskwiki_use_python2 = 1 on your vimrc so that taskwiki uses python2, seems to solve the problem for me.

fanovpn · 2018-11-09T22:03:48Z

This seems to be reproducible if you have python 3, vim, and at least one python module in your site-packages which has a namespace_packages.txt file in it's egg-info (in ArchLinux, the python-matplotlib pacman package is one example that will trigger this). In which case, attempting to import pkg_resource inside vim will fail (e.g., vim --clean -c ':py3 import pkg_resource').

Aside from importing pkg_resources and triggering the bug, it doesn't seem to be a problem in taskwiki.

tbabej · 2018-11-13T21:28:18Z

@fanovpn I just wanted to chime in (after checking the setuptool issue): good work tracking this one down guys.

jan--f · 2019-06-06T10:33:09Z

A recent vim version fixes this. This one works for me:
