Missing compression methods that seemed to work previously

Open tillea opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, I intended to use snapista which is using snappy:

$ grep -R 'from snappy'
src/snapista/graph.py:from snappy import GPF
src/snapista/operatorparams.py:from snappy import GPF
src/snapista/operator.py:from snappy import GPF, jpy

but unfortunately neither GPF nor jpy are working:

$ python3
Python 3.11.2 (main, Mar 13 2023, 12:18:29) [GCC 12.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from snappy import GPF
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'GPF' from 'snappy' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/snappy/__init__.py)
>>> from snappy import jpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'jpy' from 'snappy' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/snappy/__init__.py)

I've found some website mentioning even more compression methods (ProductIO and HashMap) which also do not work in version 0.6.1 which I tried (I also tried version 0.5.3 with same result). Am I missing something in my setup or is the code using snappy in this way outdated?

Kind regards, Andreas.

GPF and jpy don't sound like they have anything to do with this package, I don't think there have ever been things named like that.
