Library not being recognized using Red

Open por84 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

I am having an issue, similar to: https://github.com/nokia/RED/issues/245

Any library we create in our framework is recognized by Python classes fine, and the functions in the library are recognized by Red, but we are still getting the red line under the library import.

I add the library (mylib) to red.xml and its appearing in ‘Robot Referenced Libraries’ without an error. But then in my test file mytests.robot I add: Library framework.services.mylib WITH NAME mylib

and its not recognized (appears with the red line under it), but still actually works when I use it in my tests. I use Python 3.8 on Ubuntu Any idea what could be wrong?

I tired the ctrl+1 to auto search for the library and I just get:

Status: Not added to project configuration Source: /home/myname/git/project-tests/framework/services/mylib/init.py Importer: /home/myname/git/project-tests/test_cases/robotTest/Test_Cases/functional/american/mytests.robot Additional info: RED was unable to find class 'framework.services.mylib' inside 'file:///home/myname/git/project-tests/framework/services/mylib/init.py' module.

Note external Library's are fine like: Library String

Thanks

Robot 3.8 ? Is it Python 3.8?

Please bear in mind RED was not released in last 2 years and newest version supports RF 3.0-3.2 only

sorry yes, will edit my question, Python 3.8 and robotframework==3.1.2

Just to add a bit more info, see: image

here you can see that the 'Robot Referenced Libraries' has my library and my keyword is visable. I can also run my test 'My Test Case Here' successfully but for some reason im still getting the red line on line 4 and the error warning on line 11 in the screenshot. Any idea wny that might be?

thanks again in advance
