LookupError: setuptools-scm was unable to detect version for '/workspace/finn'.

[sakshigoel155]

Hi,

I posted this in gitter but saw the comment that github is being used actively now, So I will try to sum it up here.

A few months ago, I was able to run cnv_end2end example throughout without any error. But now, while running, the same example I get the error
ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last)
in
----> 1 from finn.transformation.streamline import Streamline
2 from finn.transformation.lower_convs_to_matmul import LowerConvsToMatMul
3 from finn.transformation.bipolar_to_xnor import ConvertBipolarMatMulToXnorPopcount
4 import finn.transformation.streamline.absorb as absorb
5 from finn.transformation.streamline.reorder import MakeMaxPoolNHWC, MoveScalarLinearPastInvariants

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'finn.transformation.streamline'
I created a new clone from git repo and built a docker image there(The old git still exists in different parent directory). Some modules before streamlining can be imported without error, but some give error.
$PATH is returns:
/mnt/shareLin/Vivado_2020/Vivado/2020.1/bin:/opt/conda/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/workspace/oh-my-xilinx
I think there is something wrong with setting the path, to make the modules visible within scope? Should /workspace/finn also be a part of this?

Secondly,I also got this error while building the docker, but got to command line terminal neverthless..
Obtaining file:///workspace/finn

Make sure you're either building from a fully intact git repository or PyPI tarballs. Most other sources (such as GitHub's tarballs, a git checkout without the .git folder) don't contain the necessary metadata and will not work.

For example, if you're using pip, instead of https://github.com/user/proj/archive/master.zip use git+https://github.com/user/proj.git#egg=proj

From a similar issue on git, Xilinx/finn#264
I had another git repo...I deleted it and I still see same errors
I see the following :

Thirdly,
While the docker was building, I also get:
Step 61/85 : RUN git -C /workspace/finn-experimental checkout $FINN_EXP_COMMIT

Note: checking out 'af6102769226b82b639f243dc36f065340991513'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

git checkout -b

HEAD is now at af61027 Merge pull request #8 from surangamh/fix-floorplanner-bug
Removing intermediate container 95f718240237

I tried to build container multiple times but the module import always fails, and I cant figure out what is wrong this time.
Thanks a lot in advance

Regards.

Hi again,
I have tried doing the setup multiple times now and am still getting the same error. I tried both main and dev branch..
Does anybody have any idea what else I could try? I was able to make some part of my project functional with this, but now I cant get to restart the docker setup!

Regards,

[sakshigoel155]

Changing the disk on which I clone the git worked for me.

[ThomasCourtois]

and if I have only one disk how can I do? I tried a lot of possibility from setuptools doc but I still have the same error..

[sakshigoel155]

Sorry, I dont know what else can be done. From what I understood, the problem was some leftover metadata in .git files somewhere. If you can remove the setup and reinstall, might work.

[ThomasCourtois]

I'm in Linux and I've tried a lot of time to reinstall it but still in the home. This time i clone the repo in the opt case and it's work! I don't know technically why because it's on the same disk and I put the same permission to both case. Anyway thanks a lot

[yiou-seal]

I also encountered the same problem, also in linux, I want to know the specific method and details of your solution to the problem at that time, thanks a lot
