Unable to import custom python modules on Python 3.11+ #1687
Description
Describe the bug
Errbot running on python 3.11 in docker, unable to load a python library into a plugin
To Reproduce
plugin code:
from lib.chatutils import ChatUtils
from errbot import BotPlugin, botcmd
chatutils = ChatUtils()
class MyTest(BotPlugin):
"""Perform system level commands"""
@botcmd()
def am_i_admin(self, msg, _):
admin = chatutils.is_admin(msg)
return f"{chatutils.handle(msg)} {admin}"
python library (in plugins/lib/chatutils.py)
import os
import re
class ChatUtils:
"""
A collection of common utilities used throughout the repo
"""
def is_admin(self, msg, admins):
if self.handle(msg) in admins:
return True
return False
def handle(self, msg):
try:
return str(msg.frm).split("/")[1]
except:
return msg.frm
Expected behavior
Errbot should load the plugin.
** Actual behavior **
