Hello, @SURUIYUAN! I'm here to help you with any issues you encounter. I can assist with bug fixes, answer questions, and even guide you on becoming a contributor.

The error "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'paperqa.version'" occurs because the module paperqa.version is being imported in the script, but it is not found in the specified location. The relevant line in the script is:

from paperqa.version import __version__

To resolve this error, ensure that the version.py file exists in the paperqa directory and contains the __version__ variable. The version.py file should look something like this:

# paperqa/version.py

__version__ = "1.0.0"  # or the appropriate version number

Make sure this file is in the correct directory structure so that it can be imported properly. Additionally, verify that the paperqa package is correctly installed and accessible in your Python environment ^[1][2][3].

If you're working on the source files, I added

from .version import __version__ to __init.py above the from paperqa.agents import ask # noqa: E402 line.

I also added a /paperqa/version.py with a single line: __version__ = "5.0.10"

I come from JS-land so I have no idea if this is what you're "supposed" to do, but it fixed my problems!

Hey @SURUIYUAN and @janzheng

The current paperqa version can be checked with paperqa.__version__

I believe this is an old issue. Therefore, I'm closing it. Please feel free to reopen it if the issue has not been answered.
