Difficulty Building thinkcspy with recent versions of runestone

[Stephen Schaub]

I'm having difficulty building and running thinkcspy with recent versions of runestone.

When I install runestone using pip install runestone==4.2.3, I can build, but runestone serve produces:

error -- dynamic_pages is True, but this server does not support templates

You should update pavement.py and rebuild

When I install runestone using pip install runestone==4.2.6, runestone build produces:

module 'runestone' has no attribute 'codelens'

Help?

So with 4.2.3 just modify your pavement.py file and set dynamic_pages to False. You should only set it to true if you are using a full blown runestone server.

I’m guessing that the 4.2.6 issue is due to you using Python <= 3.6 — we’ve been developing on 3.7 for 2 years, and have moved on to 3.8. I made a note in the readme to alert people to that fact. I’ve also fixed that bug but I have don’t a release since I’ve been devoting time to Runestone 5.0.0. — Actually I think that the master on GitHub right now is basically 4.2.6 + the fix that restores compatibility with Python 3.6.

Runestone 5.0.0 will become the master branch on runestone this Friday. Its a big refactoring of the components so they can come in one runestone.js file instead of 100+ small files. I made a video on how you can install the “webpack branch” — https://youtu.be/Fy0S4bGRPNE

You’re right about 4.2.6 – I was using Python 3.6. I updated to Python 3.8 and set dynamic_pages to False, and was able to build and serve successfully. I look forward to trying out Runestone 5.

 

I appreciate your quick response.

 

While I’m at it, I would like to say that the instructor interface has really improved this past year. Keep up the great job!
