Hey 👋 👋 (Sorry if this isn’t the best channel to put this, I didn’t knew where else) I’ve been struggling with an error that given my lack of python skills I’m not being able to solve. So I’m testing a module that dependes on

aws_secrets_manager_caching

I’m trying to mock this dependency in my tests, but the issue I’m having is that

aws_secrets_manager_caching

uses

pkg_resources

and when running

pants test my_test

it yields

E   ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

. Running the test like

python -m pytest

doesn’t return this error. If someone has have a similar issue let me know! I will really appreciate it! Also maybe it doesn’t have anything to do but, working on an m1 macbook isn’t helping!

Hi, welcome! 🙂 Have you seen this guide yet? https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.11/docs/troubleshooting#import-errors-and-missing-dependencies

Hi 🙂 thanks for pointing me to the right direction! That guide has several ideas I can explore! 🙌 thanks!!

Awesome, we're happy to help if you are confused or those things don't work

❤️ There was an exact example of the issue I was having! https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.11/docs/python-third-party-dependencies#requirements-with-undeclared-dependencies

Ah, that'll do it! Cool. Pants is a little more strict about things than some other workflows (which gives you benefits like fine-grained caching), so that is a common issue
