How to ship numpy with web2py application under myapp/modules?
- by Newbie07
I am having the following error while importing numpy from application/myapp/modules:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/mdipierro/make_web2py/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 212, in restricted
File "D:/web2py_win/web2py/applications/myapp/controllers/default.py", line 13, in
File "/home/mdipierro/make_web2py/web2py/gluon/custom_import.py", line 100, in custom_importer
File "applications\myapp\modules\numpy\ __init__.py", line 137, in
File "/home/mdipierro/make_web2py/web2py/gluon/custom_import.py", line 81, in custom_importer
ImportError: Cannot import module 'add_newdocs'
I tried adding 'application.myapp.modules.' in the 'import add_newdocs' statement of numpy\ __init.py__ and the error propagates to other subsequent imports(i.e. add_docs imports some other stuff and I get the ImportError again for these imports). So I narrowed down the problem to the "working directory" of the import statement. However, I do not wish to add 'application.myapp.modules.' in every import statement inside the package since it would be impractical and hard to edit if someone decides to rename the app later on. How do I make the import work smoothly?
NOTE: It is necessary for me to put the numpy package in the app to ensure ease of deployment.
