PEX

inherit_path

not working (possibly user error). Hello, I am trying to build a PEX file with only source code and no dependency to speed up deployment. I am planning to create a deployment PEX following advice from @broad-processor-92400. When I create a PEX file for first party source code and enable

inherit_path="prefer"

it doesn't pick up packages that is already installed in the system.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'uvicorn'

The

PEX-INFO

has

"inherit_path": "prefer"

and the Python interpreter has

uvicorn

installed. I must be missing something obvious as this post seems to show that it should work. Could anyone share some insights please?

Can you confirm that

python -c 'import uvicorn'

works?

Yeah, I am sorry Huon. I think this is a caching issue... when I delete the pex file and generate it again it somehow works. I am so sorry to waste your time...

no worries 😄 glad it works
