Python runtime error: No module named PreForM

[zhouguidi]

Hi,

After manually fixing issue #4, when trying to compile something using FoBiS.py build -pfm, the following error occurs:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/guidi/.local/bin/PreForM.py", line 7, in from PreForM.PreForM import main ImportError: No module named PreForM

Please fix this. Thanks! Guidi

@szaghi can not use PreForM.py as name in "entry_points => console_scripts" because will import the console_scripts it self in "local/bin" not import from "/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/"

@zhouguidi you can using

pip install PreForM.py==1.1.2  

and set -preprocessor = PreForM in FoBiS.py

@jubilee2 I totally miss this very old issue, my bad. BTW PreForM is almost dead, I doubt that someone is using it. I do not know if it makes sense to delete this repository.

[jubilee2]

@szaghi it is make no sense to me. if you want to delete. just fix it

Using python as preprocessing still cool ideal

Ok, if there is interest in PreForM I'll try to keep it living. I do not understand the necessary fix anyhow: I think that PreForM is not working now, it being not ready for python 3.x, maybe I have to try to port it from 2.7 to 3.x right?

this issue is if you run PreForM in command line without copy PreForM.py to where the folder you want to execute. it will execute the ~/.local/bin/PreForM.py file.

the '~/.local/bin/PreForM.py ' looks like

#!/usr/bin/env python
from PreForM.PreForM import main
if __name__ == '__main__' :
  main()

the from PreForM.PreForM import main will search current folder first. it is will found '~/.local/bin/PreForM.py ' and try to import it self then get error 'ImportError: No module named PreForM'

@szaghi if you want i can try to write unit test to confirm every line can run under python3 it is also new to me write python unit test ^^
