Uwsgi: ImportError: No module named uwsgi

[bkuberek]

Hi,
In recent versions I started getting this error when trying to import uwsgi into a python script:

ImportError: No module named uwsgi

I tested this on uWSGI 2.0.11.1 and 2.0.11.2

Here are the steps to reproduce:

pip install uwsgi
python -c 'import uwsgi'

According to https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Install.html I should been able to run pip install uwsgi and import it into my python script, but the uwsgi lib is never installed in site-packages

Hello, in that page there's no mention of uwsgi a generally available python
module. It's exported by the uwsgi process itself through the python plugin. So
it's available in your app but not on your shell.

Oh ok. Thanks for clarifying that.

My use case is tests: some of them don't run under the uwsgi context, but when trying to import uwsgi it fails trying to import the module.

Is there any work around to this?

I have the same question . Did you solve it ?

[nvgoldin]

@mxjily - my solution eventually was to wrap the uwsgi with try/except and ensure in the tests to mock it.

Not ideal, but did the trick.

OK,Thank you

@nvgoldin - can you show the pattern how you mocked the import uwsgi in the test context? we are using uwsgi.is_connected() api on the server to verify if client holds a connection and simulate server thread timeout/termination if takes too long.
