Python API import issues
Hi Solace Community,
I have a strange issue with the Python API - or I might just be dumb right now 
I've started with a pretty simple script that connects to a broker and just reports the client id and disconnects. (removed sensitive values...)
from solace.messaging.messaging_service import MessagingService, RetryStrategy
from solace.messaging.config.authentication_strategy import BasicUserNamePassword
from solace.messaging.config.transport_security_strategy import TLS
def main():
broker_props = {"solace.messaging.transport.host": "tcps://myhost",
"solace.messaging.service.vpn-name": "myvpn"}
transport_security = TLS.create().without_certificate_validation()
messaging_service = MessagingService.builder() \
.from_properties(broker_props) \
.with_authentication_strategy(BasicUserNamePassword("username", "*****")) \
.with_connection_retry_strategy(RetryStrategy.forever_retry(10000)) \
.with_reconnection_retry_strategy(RetryStrategy.forever_retry(10000)) \
.with_transport_security_strategy(transport_security) \
.build()
messaging_service.connect()
if messaging_service.is_connected:
print(messaging_service.get_application_id())
messaging_service.disconnect()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
My project structure looks pretty simple (I'm using activated venv):
.venv receive_events.py
And when I run this script with my virtualenv enabled I get this:
app_8a54949a-e460-4e0b-bce0-354743572c53
So the script is working fine, Solace API seems to be installed correctly in my .venv aso...
Now let's move the script to a subfolder like src
.venv src/ receive_events.py
When I run python src/receive_events.py or cd into src and then run python receive_events.py I get
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "src/receive_messages.py", line 1, in <module>
from solace.messaging.messaging_service import MessagingService, RetryStrategy
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'solace.messaging'
I tried out setting PYTHONPATH to different values - but no luck.
which python .venv/bin/python find .venv | grep solace/messaging/__init__ .venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/solace/messaging/__init__.py
I'm using solace_pubsubplus-1.2.1
Sorry, but I'm lost
I'haven't had any issues with other libraries - in fact src/ contains a Django App where I wanted Solace to connect with...

Hey @ahabel ! Thanks for raising this issue. I'm curious to know what version of python and pip are you using? I would also recommend upgrading your pip after you have activated your virual env
pip install --upgrade pipFrom the explanation of your setup, there should not be a discrepancy in behaviour if you change the location of your python script directory if you have activated you virtual environment (which seems like you have). In fact, this is the same setup we use in our python samples.
This is how I have my local environment configured

Let me know if this is helpful and if you are still facing the same issue
