No module named 'spacy.he'No module named 'spacy.he' when running tests

[mikeando]

I'm trying to set up spaCy to run in a docker container:

my Dockerfile is:

FROM python:3.6

# Install spaCy.io
RUN pip install -U spacy
RUN python -m spacy download en
RUN python -m pip install -U pytest

building the contained all seems to go OK.
but when I try to run the tests I get

> docker run spacytest python -c "import os; import spacy; print(os.path.dirname(spacy.__file__))"
/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/spacy
> docker run spacytest python -m pytest /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/spacy

    from ..he import Hebrew
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spacy.he'

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Your Environment

I'm running in OS X 10.12.3, but spaCy is getting installed into a docker container (based of
the standard python3.6 container)

> docker run spacytest python -m spacy info --markdown

## Info about spaCy

This bug is fixed in master, but unfortunately slipped through in 1.7.3.

The setup.py doesn't list the he package, which means when you pip install, it's missing that directory. I'm not sure what the best mitigation is for now.

[mikeando]

As these images are currently only for prototyping, there may be a few options.

• if the absence of this package only effects testing - then I'll just continue as is,
• if the missing package is only used in some quantifiable cases, then I may be able to continue
  as is.
• if switching to an older version is possible, and available through pip, I can use this until a new version is released.
• if switching to an older version of python fixes this, I could also do that.
• if a new version with a fix is forthcoming soon, then I can just wait a while for testing suitability of spaCy for our needs.

Will any of these work?

[honnibal]

It only affects testing, yes.

Closing this, as it's fixed on master.
