Issue with relative import from no known package

[ericshear26]

I'm still working on the same project. To give myself a better understanding of how pySerialTransfer and SerialTransfer.h work, I'm running each example in the documentation. I am using tx_data.py with rx_data.ino and rx_data.py with tx_data.ino. Every time I run rx_data or tx_data on Python, I get this error:

(base) Eric@CHE-NAR-2G5L2C0 ~ % /usr/local/bin/python3 "/Users/Eric/Desktop/Dissertation/Codes & Scripts/Python/rx_data.py"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/Eric/Desktop/Dissertation/Codes & Scripts/Python/rx_data.py", line 2, in
from pySerialTransfer import pySerialTransfer as txfer
File "/Users/Eric/Desktop/Dissertation/Codes & Scripts/Python/pySerialTransfer.py", line 11, in
from .CRC import CRC
ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package

This happened even though I copied & pasted both pySerialTransfer.py and CRC.py to the same folder where I'm running the rx and tx files. I also tried removing the "." in .CRC, to no avail.

I'm not sure what's wrong.

This happened even though I copied & pasted both pySerialTransfer.py and CRC.py to the same folder where I'm running the rx and tx files.

Why would you do this? Did pip-installing not work?

My mistake. I was using the files downloaded directly from GitHub. I deleted them and am now using the ones I pip-installed.

After I pip-installed crc and ran rx_data.py again, I got this error message:

File "/Users/Eric/Desktop/Dissertation/Codes & Scripts/Python/rx_data.py", line 3, in
from pySerialTransfer.pySerialTransfer import Status
ImportError: cannot import name 'Status' from 'pySerialTransfer.pySerialTransfer' (/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.13/lib/python3.13/site-packages/pySerialTransfer/pySerialTransfer.py)

I looked for "Status" in the pySerialTransfer.py file in my system and it doesn't have a Status class. But the one on GitHub does. There are many differences between the two versions. Would I have to replace this one with the other?

The latest version of the main branch wasn't tagged out for some reason. If you look at the examples included in the latest release, they should work with the pip-installed version of the lib.

Sorry for the confusion, I'll probably just tag out the main branch later this evening so that you can use the examples found on the main branch and make things easier.

Should be fixed in 2.6.11
