Heya,
an import issue for a local beancount plugin is driving me crazy. The
plugin is (locally) installed as a python3 module that can be loaded
just fine by any python3 invocation I could imagine, but bean-check
cannot find it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example/walkthrough, with commentary:
## bean-check fails loading the module
zack@scaramouche:~/dati/ledger$ bean-check current.beancount
<load>:0: Error importing "mybeancount.public.file_ordering": No module
named 'mybeancount.public.file_ordering'
## the module is well declared in the beancount ledger, which is why
## bean-check tries to load it
zack@scaramouche:~/dati/ledger$ grep -n file_ordering current.beancount
12:plugin "mybeancount.public.file_ordering"
## bean-check is executed as env python3
zack@scaramouche:~/dati/ledger$ head -n 1 `which bean-check`
#!/usr/bin/env python3
## trying by hand, the plugin loads as a module just fine
zack@scaramouche:~/dati/ledger$ /usr/bin/env python3
Python 3.6.4 (default, Dec 19 2017, 14:09:48)
[GCC 7.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import mybeancount.public.file_ordering
>>>
## trying by hand, take 2, using importlib in exact the same way that
## the beancount Python library does. Again, works just fine:
zack@scaramouche:~/dati/ledger$ /usr/bin/env python3
Python 3.6.4 (default, Dec 19 2017, 14:09:48)
[GCC 7.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import importlib
>>> importlib.import_module('mybeancount.public.file_ordering')
<module 'mybeancount.public.file_ordering' from
'/home/zack/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mybeancount/public/file_ordering.py'>
>>>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
What am I missing here? I've also looked for sys.path fiddling in the
beancount code, but didn't find any that seem relevant here.
I'm able to reproduce the issue on two different machines (Debian
testing and Debian Stretch), with fresh beancount installations.
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Cheers
