Docker-py: Getting TypeError while calling docker.from_env() in v3.1.2

[marpetr]

There is a problem with the just-released version 3.1.2:

$ pip list docker | grep docker
docker (3.1.2)

$ python -c 'import docker; docker.from_env()'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Users/.../env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/docker/client.py", line 81, in from_env

  File "/Users/.../env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/docker/client.py", line 38, in __init__
    self.api = APIClient(*args, **kwargs)

Looks like the public wheel package was built incorrectly. There are two conflicting definitions:

Right, that's not supposed to happen. Thanks for the report - I'll take a look ASAP.

[mmariani]

removing the "auth" directory and leaving auth.py worked for me

[shin-]

Yeah it's my fault, the wheel got packaged using a build directory that had some stale files in it. Will be fixed by #1969

[shin-]

@marpetr Let me know if you're still seeing the issue with 3.1.3

[mmariani]

works for me at least, thanks

[marpetr]

Works now. Thanks for the quick response!

This bug is shown again in 3.1.4?

Confirmed 3.1.4 has the same problem. Downgrade to 3.1.3 is solved the issue.

[ice-92]

I tried downgrading using pip install docker==3.1.3, but I'm still getting the same error message. Any other suggestions?

I'm pretty new at this.

[shin-]

I checked the 3.1.4 wheel and I can confirm it's clean. Try removing the old package and reinstalling with the --no-cache-dir option.

Hi -- I'm seeing the same error with a fresh install this evening, that started with 3.1.4:

$ pip list | grep docker
docker (3.1.4) [etc...]

$ python -c 'import docker; docker.from_env()'
[Traceback...]
TypeError: load_config() got an unexpected keyword argument 'config_dict'

then found this page, downgraded to 3.1.3 per above, and got the same error again:

[pip uninstall command...]
  Successfully uninstalled docker-3.1.4
$ sudo pip install --no-cache-dir docker==3.1.3 
Collecting docker==3.1.3

Requirement already satisfied[etc...]
Successfully installed docker-3.1.3
$ python -c 'import docker; docker.from_env()'
[Traceback...]

I can wipe/reinstall (I'm writing an Ansible script for this machine) if needed to help diagnose, also open to me having fat fingered something, here. :)

[shin-]

@wjhill Ansible may be installing the deprecated docker-py package which conflicts with the docker package. Make sure you only have one or the other installed.

[wjhill]

Removing docker-py allowed the "[...]docker.from_env()" command to run successfully with 3.1.4 installed.

I see where the Ansible Role I'm using installs docker-py; I'll put in an Issue with them about this, and point to this discussion, once I test locally.

Thanks!

Still getting the error when I use docker-compose and python -c 'import docker; docker.from_env()'.

Not really sure what to do. I just need to get docker-compose to work.
Using docker 3.1.4, docker-py 1.10.6 and docker-compose 1.20.1. Does it matter what version of pip I use? My distro's version is 8.1.2 and I did upgrade it to 9.0.3 earlier using pip's upgrade feature, is it possible that caused any conflicts?

[wjhill]

@ice-92 try removing docker-py, per what @shin- told me to do up above. I just confirmed that having only the latest docker (without the -py) Python package fixed my issue, hope it helps you too!

[ice-92]

Alright, I somehow fixed it by doing

pip uninstall docker-py
pip uninstall docker-compose
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-cache-dir docker-compose

[wjhill]

@ice-92 I got you. In fact, I just looked and confirmed that, at first, I got the same error after I removed it, too.

I thought it was just me...but I fixed it with pip uninstall docker, then running pip install --no-cache-dir docker again. After that, I ran OK.

Apologies, I assumed it was just a fluke on my system, but if that works for you it might just be how it has to be done in general.
