makePlan.py script

[whytecrow]

I cannot find the script, am I the only one? Running the example gives me the "No such file or directory" error. I'm lost..

You're right. I thought I corrected the documentation when "makePlan.py" was renamed "maxfield.py". I'll fix it now. Thanks!

[whytecrow]

Thanks for a quick reply, anyway, the script fails with complaints about parentheses. I think it's due recent python version (3.5) - obviously the print statement needs the arguments closed in parentheses. After correcting that, the script cannot import geometry module.. This is a little bit beyond my knowledge - the file is in lib as well as the other passed to the import command.

Corrected files:

maxfield.py35.txt
lib.maxfield.py35.txt

I very unwisely had two files named "maxfield.py" in the project, but since one was tucked away in lib, I thought it wouldn't matter. I've changed one to lib/makeFields.py. Get this version and make sure you're running maxfield.py and not something that's in the lib directory. Does that solve your problems?

[whytecrow]

No. I'm sorry to say. I didn't run the lib/maxfield.py script, either.

$ python maxfield.py -n 4 EXAMPLE.csv output/ output.pkl 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "maxfield.py", line 27, in <module>
    from lib import makeFields,PlanPrinter,geometry,agentOrder
  File "/home/mine/maxfield/lib/makeFields.py", line 23, in <module>
    import geometry
ImportError: No module named 'geometry'

So I added "from lib" to all imported scripts, et voila..

$ python maxfield.py -n 4 EXAMPLE.csv output/ output.pkl

maxfield uses python2 (2.7.11 or so). It will not work with python3.

$ python2 --version
Python 2.7.11

$ python2 maxfield.py ...

[whytecrow]

Yeah! That's it. I didn't know that the 2.7 version was installed as well. I'll have to install 2.7 libs.
xrange function was replaced by range in 3.0... Little more hacking and it will work!

[jpeterbaker]

Thanks! I've barely touched Python 3, but I didn't think that could be the whole problem.
