Hi, I am converting a package from PyCall.jl to PythonCall.jl. (I am planning on calling Julia from Python in the future, and I want to test whether to use PythonCall/JuliaCall or PyCall/pyjulia. PythonCall/JuliaCall appears to be the future, so I’m pursuing that route now. However, I had a similar problem with PyCall - I just never bothered to investigate.)
So I have two packages: MyPlotExtras.jl and another that loads MyPlotExtras. A minimal example is:
module MyPlotExtras
using PythonPlot
function __init__()
rcParams = PythonPlot.matplotlib.rcParams
end
end
and
module TestMyPlotExtras
using MyPlotExtras
end
To reproduce the problem it is important to dev
the MyPlotExtras.jl
package in the TestMyPlotExtras.jl
package, or to have it registered in a local registry.
I am probably failing at explaining this properly, so I made a very small git repo to illustrate: GitHub - hsgg/TestMyPlotExtras: Testing repository to show how loading the PlotExtras package fails with PythonCall.jl
Only then do I get:
julia> using TestMyPlotExtras
