Hello,

I am scratching my head against a problem I have.
It might be related to my low level in Nix but anayway I am running out of idea and wanted to ask you for help.

What I am trying to do ?

I want to transform a python application into a Nix package with all the dependencies to either integrate it to a NixOS server, or to just run the application from a system with Nix.

The project has few specific point :

• It contains a module/library with the same name as the project;
• A bin folder exist and contains multiple python files which call Popen to run other scripts located into the bin folder.
• One of the script inside the bin folder runs a Flask application with gunicorn.

What I was able to do ?

I was able to successfully run the project inside a shell with the command nix develop;

I was able to build my packages with nix build.
However I cannot run it because I have this issue :

─○ ./result/bin/start
Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/nix/store/4h6llg34gcf1gbw4gcxki26ib22ys3h9-python3.12-test-0.0.0/bin/.start-wrapped", line 6, in <module>
        from bin.start import main
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bin'

The workaround I found was to set the PYTHONPATH variable manually :

─○ TEST_HOME='/home/user/Repositories/TestFlake' PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)/result/:$PYTHONPATH ./result/bin/start
Start backend (redis)...
Waiting on cache to start
Waiting on indexing to start
+ redis-server ./cache.conf
+ redis-server ./indexing.conf
done.
Start website...
done.

However I still face issue in my code where flask was not imported :

What the problem is from my understanding ?

I think I am facing multiple issues :

• I am not sure to package it well and to do it in a "Nix" way ;
• On the build phase I am not abble to retrieve the module named bin without manually set the PYTHONPATH;
• Even with the PYTHONPATH I still miss dependencies.

I am at a point where I tested everything, even absurd things.

I created a test project to highlight my issues.
It is much lighter than the original project : https://gitea.com/oven_spinout988/TestFlake.

Please let me know if I should post my message elsewhere.

Would someone can help or assit me in the process please ?

What flake is use ?

What the problem is from my understanding ?

I think I am facing multiple issues :

• I am not sure to package it well and to do it in a "Nix" way ;
• On the build phase I am not abble to retrieve the module named bin without manually set the PYTHONPATH;
• Even with the PYTHONPATH I still miss dependencies.

I am at a point where I tested everything, even absurd things.

I created a test project to highlight my issues.
It is much lighter than the original project : https://gitea.com/oven_spinout988/TestFlake.

Hello,

I am scratching my head against a problem I have.
It might be related to my low level in Nix but anayway I am running out of idea and wanted to ask you for help.

What I am trying to do ?

I want to transform a python application into a Nix package with all the dependencies to either integrate it to a NixOS server, or to just run the application from a system with Nix.

The project has few specific point :

• It contains a module/library with the same name as the project;
• A bin folder exist and contains multiple python files which call Popen to run other scripts located into the bin folder.
• One of the script inside the bin folder runs a Flask application with gunicorn.

What I was able to do ?

I was able to successfully run the project inside a shell with the command nix develop;

I was able to build my packages with nix build.
However I cannot run it because I have this issue :

─○ ./result/bin/start
Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/nix/store/4h6llg34gcf1gbw4gcxki26ib22ys3h9-python3.12-test-0.0.0/bin/.start-wrapped", line 6, in <module>
        from bin.start import main
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bin'

The workaround I found was to set the PYTHONPATH variable manually :

─○ TEST_HOME='/home/user/Repositories/TestFlake' PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)/result/:$PYTHONPATH ./result/bin/start
Start backend (redis)...
Waiting on cache to start
Waiting on indexing to start
+ redis-server ./cache.conf
+ redis-server ./indexing.conf
done.
Start website...
done.

However I still face issue in my code where flask was not imported :

maybe you need to add [tool.poetry.packages] to your pyproject.toml

In reply to @oven_spinout988:matrix.org
I will give it a try

I am not sure if it is a lead or not.
Changing a part of my pyproject.toml made some changes and it is not yelling anymore about the bin module. It is yelling about an other :

[tool.poetry]

version = "0.0.0"

packages = [
  { include = "test" },
  { include = "bin" },
  { include = "test" },
  { include = "default", from = "test" },
]
 [..]

Produces :

The application is working fine with debian. From the documentation of poetry, it looks like specifying packages disable the auto-detection feature.
