import utility

Dear All,

Somehow I am unable to import the utility module

import utility
Runtime error (ImportException): No module named utility

without to show the hole patch to utility.py, is that normal?

Thanks,
Dimitry

Hi Dimitry,

utility is not a standard library module, right?

GhPython uses the same resolution as _EditPythonScript and Rhino. It instructs the runtime to look at the very same places. You can see them inside Tools, then Options (see image on the right).

Nevertheless, are you meaning that you have the Grasshopper file and Python module in the same folder and would like to maintain the link relatively? This sample shows how to, using the sys module.

Cheers,

Btw, there is an item in the issues about this. There is a good chance that we will decide to add the local path to the sys.path list automatically. This, however, might have some implications when several components execute in different documents.

For now, please use the method above.
Thanks,

Hi Giulio,

Do you maybe how to solve the next problem with the importing libraries? I am importing networkx, but an error raises, the decorator module is not founded. But the same script works from the command line.
