[12:08] < Lawouach_> hi guys

[12:52] *** dweebster has joined #kamaelia

[12:53] < dweebster> i need some help plz :)

[12:54] < dweebster> I get this error when trying to run a Graphline, I am totally new to kamaelia

[12:54] < dweebster> the error is : Graphline( reader = ConsoleReader(prompt=''),

[12:54] < dweebster> NameError: name 'Graphline' is not defined

[12:54] < dweebster> can someone give me a pointer plz ?

[12:58] *** MS- has joined #kamaelia

[12:58] < MS-> dweebster:

[12:58] < MS-> from Kamaelia.Chassis.Graphline import Graphline

[12:59] < MS-> needs to happen, otherwise you will get:

[12:59] < MS-> NameError: name 'Graphline' is not defined

[12:59] < MS-> eg

[12:59] < MS-> >>> Graphline

[12:59] < MS-> Traceback (most recent call last):

[12:59] < MS-> File "< stdin>", line 1, in < module>

[12:59] < MS-> NameError: name 'Graphline' is not defined

[12:59] < MS-> >>> from Kamaelia.Chassis.Graphline import Graphline

[12:59] < MS-> >>> Graphline

[12:59] < MS-> < class 'Kamaelia.Chassis.Graphline.Graphline'>

[12:59] < MS-> >>>

[12:59] < dweebster> k

[13:00] < dweebster> i noticed that in the Util the Graphline.py is depracated

[13:00] < dweebster> do i have to edit the graphline in the Chassis folder to my needs

[13:00] < MS-> Yep - we moved it to somewhere that makes more sense

[13:01] < MS-> This is what happens if you try and use the Graphline in Util:

[13:01] < MS-> >>> from Kamaelia.Util.Graphline import Graphline

[13:01] < MS-> >>> Graphline

[13:01] < MS-> < class 'Kamaelia.Support.Deprecate.stub'>

[13:01] < MS-> >>> Graphline()

[13:01] < MS-> DEPRECATED: Use Kamaelia.Chassis.Graphline:Graphline instead of Kamaelia.Util.Graphline:Graphline

[13:01] < dweebster> do i have to move all the py scripts i want run into the chassis folder as well?

[13:01] < MS-> No.

[13:01] < dweebster> just edit the graphline in the chassis folder

[13:01] < MS-> no, you just install kamaelia

[13:02] < MS-> and the in your python code just import it

[13:02] < MS-> I'm guessing you haven't written much python code at all

[13:02] < dweebster> import it to the chassis filder

[13:02] < dweebster> no

[13:02] *** MS- nods

[13:02] < dweebster> this is my first attempt

[13:02] < dweebster> :(

[13:02] < MS-> np

[13:03] < MS-> have you programmed in any other languages ?

[13:03] < MS-> (which I can use as a possible reference point)

[13:03] < dweebster> no

[13:03] < MS-> Ah OK

[13:03] < dweebster> i'm sorry

[13:03] < MS-> np

[13:03] < MS-> I think you ought to look at a simple tutorial focussed on python initially in that case

[13:03] < dweebster> can you bear with me plz

[13:04] < MS-> Sure

[13:04] < MS-> Short summary:

[13:04] < dweebster> i'm in my chassis folder

[13:04] < MS-> Kamaelia is a library

[13:04] < dweebster> aye

[13:04] < MS-> You install the library using the setup.py file, which puts it into a standard location - called "site-packages"

[13:05] < dweebster> yep

[13:05] < MS-> Then any python program - anywhere on the system - can find the library and use it

[13:05] < dweebster> i followed all that install

[13:05] < MS-> even just the python shell

[13:05] < dweebster> i am running python 2.6 which i installed

[13:05] < MS-> as a result, you don't need to be in any particular directory - and in particular you shouldn't be trying to put code into the library directory

[13:06] < dweebster> ah ok

[13:06] < dweebster> so to run the graphline i have , what cmd do i input

[13:07] < dweebster> i input python Graphline.py

[13:07] < dweebster> and it comes up t=with the error

[13:07] < MS-> You put the graphline you're writing in it's own file

[13:07] < MS-> Then

[13:07] < MS-> Along with all the necessary import statements

[13:07] < MS-> and then just get python to run it

[13:08] < MS-> on linux for example you type:

[13:08] < MS-> python MyFile.py

[13:08] < MS-> (where MyFile.py contains your script)

[13:08] < dweebster> k

[13:08] < MS-> Please take a look at the examples in the Examples directory

[13:08] < dweebster> ok

[13:08] < dweebster> will do

[13:09] < MS-> I'd suggest starting there and playing with those first, since that's probably a good starting point :)

[13:09] < dweebster> ty for your help

[13:09] < MS-> That, and a good (basic) python tutorial ;)

[13:09] < MS-> You're welcome :)

[13:09] < dweebster> :)

[13:09] *** dweebster goes off to study

[16:17] < vmlemon_> Hi

[16:25] *** vmlemon_ has parted #kamaelia

[16:55] < dweebster> anyone about?

[17:04] < Lawouach> dweebster: yeap

[17:04] < dweebster> :)

[17:04] < dweebster> i keep getting an error with the consolereader

[17:05] < dweebster> NameError: name 'ConsoleReader' is not defined

[17:05] < dweebster> i've added this to my graphline : from Axon.ThreadedComponent import threadedcomponent

[17:06] < dweebster> but it errors

[17:06] < dweebster> can you help

[17:08] < Lawouach> could you paste the code?

[17:08] < Lawouach> in a pastebin somewhere?

[17:09] < dweebster> gimme a sec

[17:13] < dweebster> http://pastebin.ca/1379190

[17:13] < dweebster> thats part of it

[17:15] < dweebster> i imprted the other components successfully, apart from the consolereader which gives me the error :)

[17:15] < Lawouach> hmm

[17:15] < Lawouach> what's the line you're using for the ConsoleReader import?

[17:16] < dweebster> from Axon.ThreadedComponent import threadedcomponent

[17:17] < Lawouach> oh

[17:17] < Lawouach> I see

[17:17] < Lawouach> you forgot to import the ConsoleReader class

[17:17] < Lawouach> hence the NameError error

[17:18] < Lawouach> try something like

[17:18] < Lawouach> from Kamaelia.Util.Console import ConsoleReader

[17:18] < dweebster> from Kamaelia.Util.Console.ConsoleReader import ConsoleReader

[17:18] < dweebster> something like that

[17:19] < Lawouach> yeah

[17:19] < dweebster> lol

[17:19] < Lawouach> one of the two :)

[17:19] < dweebster> kk

[17:21] < dweebster> :)

[17:21] < dweebster> from Kamaelia.Util.Console import ConsoleReader < < < that worked :)

[17:21] < dweebster> ty

[17:22] < dweebster> now onto the next one...:)

[17:22] < dweebster> ty for your help :)

[17:26] < Lawouach> :)
