getting started question

[patrick]

Hello,

I was pulling the docker image from:

https://hub.docker.com/r/vlsida/openram-ubuntu

Then cloned the OpenRAM python code into the image.

When I try to generate a config from the example I get:

cad-user@397e6f51a002:~$ python3 $OPENRAM_HOME/openram.py config1
ERROR: file globals.py: line 340: Unable to read configuration file: /home/cad-user/config1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/cad-user/openram/compiler/globals.py", line 338, in read_config
    config = importlib.import_module(module_name)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/importlib/__init__.py", line 127, in import_module
    return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1014, in _gcd_import
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 991, in _find_and_load
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 973, in _find_and_load_unlocked
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'config1'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/cad-user/openram/compiler/openram.py", line 35, in <module>
    g.init_openram(config_file=args[0], is_unit_test=False)
  File "/home/cad-user/openram/compiler/globals.py", line 200, in init_openram
    read_config(config_file, is_unit_test)
  File "/home/cad-user/openram/compiler/globals.py", line 340, in read_config
    debug.error("Unable to read configuration file: {0}".format(config_file), 2)
  File "/home/cad-user/openram/compiler/debug.py", line 47, in error
    assert return_value == 0
AssertionError

WhIle I can see the file /home/cad-user/config1 fine in the local directory.

Not sure what is wrong (the openram help command said I am using the right syntax)

Thanks,

Patrick

Sorry, already solved, I just need to make the config a python module.

Then it works.
