Hydra: [Bug] Paths not properly configured when packaged

[jbohnslav]

🐛 Bug

I'm releasing my app as a pip package. I want users to be able to type "my_app" at the command line. I want this main script to take a Hydra configuration as input.

What works:
python -m my_app.gui.main
What doesn't work:
my_app

In my_app\gui\main:

@hydra.main(config_path='../conf/gui.yaml')
def run(cfg: DictConfig) -> None:
    log.info('CWD: {}'.format(os.getcwd()))

In my setup.py:

entry_points={
        'console_scripts':[
            'my_app= my_app.gui.main:run']
    },

Additional context

I tried to follow the formula outlined in this issue here

Edit: I think it was just a versioning issue. Switching to the "old" version of issue #92 works fine.

@jbohnslav, this is the doc for the app packaging.
There is a link there to a working example you should base your thing on.

When 1.0.0 is out, the example in master will be the correct one to follow.
