Idris not properly installing/finding packages - import

I'm currently trying to use Blodwen, the prototype of Idris 2, as a backend for a language I'm writing. So I'm trying to import its ttimp package for my project.
I go into the Blodwen directory and do idris --install ttimp.ipkg
Then in my project's .ipkg I have:
opts = "--cg-opt -O2 -i ~/GitHub/Blodwen/"
pkgs = ttimp
However, when I run idris --build myproject.ipkg I get the error
Entering directory `./src'
The following packages were specified but cannot be found:
- ttimp
If I remove ttimp from pkgs, then I get Can't find import Core/Binary
i.e. it can't find the modules from the package.
If I try to build ttimp with TARGET=~/.idris-libs
idris --install ttimp.ipkg
Entering directory `./src'
Can't find import Builtins
Can't find import Prelude
Can't find import Data/List
My Question: How can I make sure ttimp is being installed properly? Where does Idris install packages by default? Why isn't Idris finding the library after I've installed it?

I am not sure what your current goal is, but when you install blodwen it is using idris to a) install ttimp and to compile blodwen, which is available as the executable blodwen afterwards. So if you want to work with blodwen, you should also use blodwen to compile your files and install additional libraries.

’unresolved import’ message for streamlit in Eclipse PyDev

I have successfully installed the streamlit package using the following
shell command and can run the resulting local server localhost:8501
Python3.8 -m pip install streamlit
In Eclipse, the module appears under the Package Library in the Python Interpreter.
I can import it as a library item in a PyDev module as as follows:
import streamlit
The only note I get from the compiler is that streamlit is an ‘unused import’. However, when I append the command as follows the compiler then says ‘unresloved import st’
import streamlit as st
Both ‘import streamlit’. and ‘import streamlit as st’ will not code complete.
How can I clear the ’unresolved import’ message ?
The sys.path is as follows:
/Users/davidklemitz/eclipse-workspace/streamlit
/Users/davidklemitz/eclipse-workspace/streamlit
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/lib-dynload
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python38.zip
Thanks in advance for any help.
I solved the problem. Turns out it was a compound of two issues.
First the name of the PyDev module I chose was the same name as the package module name streamlit.py, installed using the following command
Python3.8 -m pip install streamlit
Second, I had a look at the PYTHONPATH under Eclipse->Preferences-> PyDev->Interpreters-> Python Interpreter where these paths were arranged as follows:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages
As streamit.py was in the second and not the first, I reversed the order, restarted Eclipse, created a new PyDev project and associated development model named stream_lit.py and the code completed as expected.

Installing Cairo, Helm on Windows

How do I install Helm (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/helm) on Windows 7 (64-bit)?
(Update: I had posted a lot of error messages here, but I've moved them to my answer to not clutter up the question.)
Installation for Windows 64-bit:
I'm including error messages, for if you follow all the steps up to that point and then just try to install directly. This is a conglomeration of a bunch of ad-hoc steps from following many different posts. Any simplification would be appreciated!
Note: Do all work in directories without spaces. I'm doing all work in C:/PF; modify this to your directory.
Download MSYS2-x86_64 from https://msys2.github.io/ and install it. Cabal install cairo (or helm) will give something like:
Configuring cairo-0.13.1.0...
setup.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign libraries:
Missing C libraries: z, cairo, z, gobject-2.0, ffi, pixman-1, fontconfig,
expat, freetype, iconv, expat, freetype, z, bz2, harfbuzz, glib-2.0, intl,
ws2_32, ole32, winmm, shlwapi, intl, png16, z
Download C libraries. In MINGW64 (NOT MSYS2 - I had trouble with MSYS2 at random stages in the process), use the package manager:
pacman -Ss cairo
to search for the Cairo package. You'll find "mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-cairo", so install that:
pacman -S mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-cairo
*.pc files should have been added to C:\PF\msys64\mingw64\lib\pkgconfig and C:\PF\msys64\usr\lib\pkgconfig. (pkg-config needs to be able to find these files. It looks in PKG_CONFIG_PATH, which by default should have the lib/pkgconfig folder above. Moving the file here is easiest. See Can't install sdl2 via cabal) If you get
The pkg-config package ... version ... cannot be found
errors then check your *.pc files.
Repeat with other required libraries, like atk
pacman -S mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-atk
(I don't know the complete list, but error messages later on will let you know what to get.)
Get the development files for these libraries (as suggested by How to install cairo on Windows). Most of them are bundled up at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win64/gtk+/2.22/. Unzip.
Copy files (.a, .dll.a) in lib to C:\PF\msys64\mingw64\lib. Copy the pkgconfig folder, which contains the .pc files.
Copy files in include to C:\PF\msys64\mingw64\include.
Add C:\PF\gtk+-2.22.1\bin to the path.
(2) and (3) might be redundant. I don't know - I did them both.
At this point you can probably do "cabal install cairo". (Warning: if your end goal is something else, you may not want to "cabal install" intermediate packages, see https://wiki.haskell.org/Cabal/Survival#Issue_.232_--_Not_installing_all_the_packages_in_one_go.)
See (4) for the syntax in specifying extra-include-dirs and extra-lib-dirs (but if you copied the files above this shouldn't be necessary),
Any time you get
Missing (or bad) header file
check to see you copied the *.h files to mingw64\include and/or add the include folder to the PATH. Use cabal install -v3 to get verbose error messages if the problem persists.
If you get something like
cairo-0.13.1.0: include-dirs: /mingw64/include/freetype2 is a relative path
which makes no sense (as there is nothing for it to be relative to). You can
make paths relative to the package database itself by using ${pkgroot}. (use
--force to override)
try --ghc-pkg-options="--force" (as mentioned at https://github.com/gtk2hs/gtk2hs/issues/139).
Get SDL. Otherwise you'll get
configure: error: *** SDL not found! Get SDL from www.libsdl.org.
If you already installed it, check it's in the path. If problem remains,
please send a mail to the address that appears in ./configure --version
indicating your platform, the version of configure script and the problem.
Failed to install SDL-0.6.5.1
Follow the instructions in (2) to get sdl/sdl2 libraries. (See instructions here Installing SDL on Windows for Haskell (GHC).)
The new version helm-0.7.1 requires sdl2, but there are other dependency issues with helm-0.7.1 as of writing. Download SDL from http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW/x86_64/ (direct download link to newest version as of writing http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/REPOS/MINGW/x86_64/mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL-1.2.15-7-any.pkg.tar.xz.sig/download), unzip. "cabal install sdl" gives
* Missing (or bad) header file: SDL/SDL.h
* Missing C library: SDL
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
so we specify where the dirs are (change the name depending on where you extracted sdl to)
cabal install sdl --extra-include-dirs=C:/PF/sdl\include --extra-lib-dirs=C:/sdl/lib
If you got SDL2 (http://libsdl.org/download-2.0.php) (for a newer version of Helm): there is a fatal bug that hasn't been fixed in the release version. (If you don't fix it, cabal install -v3 things which depends on it will give error
winapifamily.h: No such file or directory
("winapifamily.h: No such file or directory" when compiling SDL in Code::Blocks) Download https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/raw-file/e217ed463f25/include/SDL_platform.h, replace the file in the include folder and in C:/PF/msys64/mingw64/include/SDL2.
Download gtk2hs from http://code.haskell.org/gtk2hs and run
the following
cd gtk2hs/tools
cabal install
cd ../glib
cabal install
cd ../gio
cabal install
cd ../pango
cabal install --ghc-pkg-options="--force"
(Maybe you have already installed glib and gio from before? I did this step because normal install of Pango caused an error for me (https://github.com/gtk2hs/gtk2hs/issues/110)
pango-0.13.1.0: include-dirs: /mingw64/include/freetype2 is a relative path
which makes no sense (as there is nothing for it to be relative to). You can
make paths relative to the package database itself by using ${pkgroot}. (use
--force to override)
Once the Helm developers get things updated you should be able to do "cabal install helm" but right now there seem to be dependency issues. For me, cabal automatically tries to install helm-0.4 (probably because 0.4 didn't give upper bounds on dependencies, while newer versions do. You could try "cabal unpack"ing and deleting the upper bounds...). Then
cabal unpack helm-0.4
Installing gives an error because "pure" got moved to Prelude. Open helm-0.4\src\FRP\Helm\Automaton.hs and change line 17:
import Prelude hiding (id, (.), pure)
Now
cabal install
Try to compile and run a program using Helm
(This is 0.4 - look on the website for a newer sample if you tried a newer Helm)
import FRP.Helm
import qualified FRP.Helm.Window as Window
render :: (Int, Int) -> Element
render (w, h) = collage w h [filled red $ rect (fromIntegral w) (fromIntegral h)]
main :: IO ()
main = run $ fmap (fmap render) Window.dimensions
If you get an error about a missing .dll (sdl.dll), find it in a bin/ folder and add the folder to your PATH (or copy it to somewhere on your path).

coq Hello World example (with opam) can't find libraries

I was following a coq HelloWorld tutorial (code below), and couldn't get the program to compile. I followed the installation steps and installed opam install coq:io:system. My opam installation is at the default location ~/.opam. But still, I got an error about
Toplevel input, characters 53-67:
Error: The reference System.effects was not found in the current environment.
This is with either emacs/proofgeneral or coqide (8.4pl6, ubuntu 14.04). Does any one know how to fix the issue?
Here's the code which I copied into a file called hello_world.v and loaded into emacs/coqide:
Require Import Coq.Lists.List.
Require Import Io.All.
Require Import Io.System.All.
Require Import ListString.All.
Import ListNotations.
Import C.Notations.
(** The classic Hello World program. *)
Definition hello_world (argv : list LString.t) : C.t System.effects unit :=
System.log (LString.s "Hello world!").
-- Update ---
#gtzinos, I followed the readme in https://github.com/clarus/coq-hello-world. This time there was no complaint about System.effects, but there was a new error about Extraction.launch not found. I tried:
git clone https://github.com/clarus/coq-hello-world.git
cd coq-hello-world
./configure.sh && make
and got:
"coqc" -q -R src HelloWorld src/Main
File "/.../coq-hello-world/src/Main.v", line 32, characters 19-36:
Error: The reference Extraction.launch was not found in the current
environment.
I tried also to make in the extraction folder, but without success. Any pointers?
New versions of the coq:io and coq:io:system libraries were just released. Run:
opam update
opam upgrade
to make sure you have coq:io:system in version at least 2.3.0. Now Extraction.launch should be available. System.effects has been replaced by System.effect.

Force py.test to use installed version of module

I have a mixed Python/C++ library with test files mixed in amongst source files in the same directories. The layout looks like
/home/irving/geode
geode
__init__.py
vector
__init__.py
test_vector.py
...
...
Unfortunately, the library is unusable in-place since it lacks .so extension modules. Question: Can I make py.test always use an installed version, even when run from /home/irving/geode or a subdirectory?
The test files have from __future__ import absolute_import, and run fine if executed directly as scripts. For example, if I do
cd geode/vector
./test_vector.py
which does import geode, it finds the installed version. However, if I run py.test in geode/vector, it finds the local copy of geode, and then dies.
I think you have two options:
run py.test --pyargs geode.vector.test_vector to make pytest interpretet the argument as an import path, deriving the file system path from it. This should run the test against the installed version.
move the tests out into a tests directory without an __init__.py file. This way you need to pip install -e . to work in-place or can do python setup.py install and the py.test tests to run tests against the installed version.

Can you run pychecker from virtualenv?

I want to do code analysis with pychecker but when it imports python code it doesn't use the packages from virtualenv, it uses the system wide one and the import fail.
Is there a way to install pychecker in a virtualenv or at least get it to just import the packages from the virtualenv?
Set your $PYTHONPATH environmental variable to the site-packages directory.
For me, pychecker was not able to find the configobj module. Since I use zsh (bash with lots of bells and whistles), I ran:
> find ~/venv-ops -name configobj.py
/Users/doug/venv-ops/lib/python2.7/site-packages/configobj.py
> export PYTHONPATH=/Users/doug/venv-ops/lib/python2.7/site-packages
and then pycheck worked fine.
