Not compatible with tensorflow 1.3? about tensorboardx

[lanpa]

@nsknsl , @pnavarre I just uploaded https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tensorboardX

from tensorboardX import SummaryWriter

This one should be fine :)

[lanpa]

Which command triggered the error message?
I am using tensorboard-pytorch v0.7 from pip, TF v1.3 and it looks fine.
Please also provide the output of pip freeze, thanks.

I think the problem is that they moved Tensorboard to a dependency of TF 1.3 (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tensorboard). "tensorflow-pytorch" and the original "tensorboard" both use the same name when using import. With both modules installed I get the following error:

from tensorboard import SummaryWriter
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 1, in
from tensorboard import SummaryWriter

ImportError: cannot import name 'SummaryWriter'

@pnavarre The link you provided is not an official package. The official package comes with TF1.3 is https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tensorflow-tensorboard .

[pnavarre]

Sorry, my bad. I did install the official (tensorflow-tensorboad) and got the error above.

[lanpa]

@pnavarre please post the output of pip freeze. BTW do you use anaconda environment or not?

[pnavarre]

Thanks!

Thank you.

@Ascrypto Can you paste a more detailed error message?

[Ascrypto]

@lanpa Thank you for responding back.

The error is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./run.py", line 29, in
from tensorboardX import SummaryWriter
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tensorboardX'

Within a jupyter notebook, it works fine, but outside the notebook (when imported in .py files), it doesn't.

I have the packages installed:
tensorboard==2.0.1
tensorboard-plugin-wit==1.8.0
tensorboardX==2.4.1
tensorflow-estimator==2.2.0

@Ascrypto Would it work if you run from tensorboardX import SummaryWriter in an interactive python environment? Which virtual environment manager are you using? Can you post the whole package list of the virtual environment you are using?

[Ascrypto]

I appreciate your help. The problem is fixed at the moment.

I have tried these commands to install tensorboardX inside a venv:

• sudo pip -H install tensorboardX
• pip install tensorboardX
• sudo pip install tensorboardX
• added the package manually from: settings --> python interpreter --> + (in PyCharm)

But tensorboardX did not when running from tensorboardX import SummaryWriter in an interactive python environment.

When I installed it using:

• python -m pip install tensorboardX
• sudo python -m pip install tensorboardX

It worked in both python and sudo python interactive environments.

@Ascrypto I suggest not to use sudo to pip install or execute your python script.
