Thanks for the help!

You are right, I tried to run a script in a folder, but this worked without any problems before the update.

Now I moved pipista into site-packages and the import from the script in the folder worked, but when the script tries to import a module from the pypi-modules folder I got the same error.

I moved the pipy-modules folder into the site-packages folder but this doesn't change anything ... but wait I forgot that that site-packages folder has to be reload or something like that ... I will try now ...

Edit: After reloading everything in the site-packages folder importing from pypi-modules is working again.

Thanks for the help!

After I upgraded to Pythonista 2.0 every script and even the console show the following error after the command "import pipista":

>>> import pipista
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named pipista

The pipista.py script is still in the main directory and all modules are in the "pypi-modules" folder.

Any hints to get get pipista support back?

I want to generate PDFs from SQLite output and found the ReportLab Toolkit. A search let me found this thread: Other ways to convert Markdown/HTML to PDF in iOS where hvmhvm wrote that he installed the reportlab module in Editorial. I thought this must also be possible with Pythonista and installed the module with the help from pipista and shellista.

Then I tried to run the example script from the documentation:

Edit: ! This testscript got messed up !

import pipista
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas

def hello(c):
  c.drawString(100,100,"Hello World")

c = canvas.Canvas("hello.pdf")
c.showPage()
hello(c)

In line 2 I got an 'ImportError: No module named future_buildins'

I can't find a way to install the future_builtins module.

Has anyone an idea how I can get reportlab working?

Aaaargh!

I don't know how it happend, but somehow my testscript got messed up. It should be:

import pipista
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas

def hello(c):
  c.drawString(100,100,"Hello World")

c = canvas.Canvas("hello.pdf")
hello(c)
c.showPage()
c.save()

This script works with the 2.7 Version of reportlab and creates the 'hello.pdf' file ... :-) !

I now realized that the user hvmhvm installed Version 2.7 of the reportlab module while I installed the actual Version 3.1.8. After I deleted Version 3.1.8 and installed Version 2.7 the testscript runs without any errormessages. But I can't find the 'hello.pdf' file that should be saved by the script.

OK, here is my 'scrappy' script ;-) : Moves2DayOne.py

I only extract location data from known locations and no transportation or other movement data because that's all I need.

If anyone is interested in modifying the script:

• API Documentation - Moves for Developers
• Moves API–Google Groups

I'm also a python newbie, but I already got a working script that extracts my daily location data from Moves and pushes it to Day One. I didn't published my script because I got my authentication working with a lot of trial and error and so I can work with my token, but I have no idea how to implement the authentication process in the script.

If your problem is that you can't import any new module in your code, you have to tell pythonista where to find it: The Module Search Path

When you are using pipista, one simple way is to import pipista first in your code, after that the interpreter will automatically also search for modules in the 'pipista-modules' directory.

Did you already check the information in this thread 'Using pipista'?

If the answer is 'Yes', please describe your problem more precisely. What exactly did you do to get this error massage (code or command examples)?

Because I need a way to convert time from CET (or CEST) to PST I want to use the pytz module. I'm a python beginner and after searching and trying a little bit with pipista and shellista I already downloaded and extracted the pytz module in pythonista.

But I'm not sure if I've done everything right.

After unzipping the pytz-2014.2.zip file I got a
pytz (folder)
pytz-egg-info (folder)
and some other files.

When I move everything in the pypi-modules folder my testscript doesn't work.

import pipista
from datetime import datetime
from pytz import timezone

fmt = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z%z"

# Current time in UTC
now_utc = datetime.now(timezone('Europe/Berlin'))
print now_utc.strftime(fmt)

# Convert to US/Pacific time zone
now_pacific = now_utc.astimezone(timezone('US/Pacific'))
print now_pacific.strftime(fmt)

# Convert to Europe/Berlin time zone
now_berlin = now_pacific.astimezone(timezone('Europe/Berlin'))
print now_berlin.strftime(fmt)

When I run the script I get an UnknownTimeZoneError: 'Europe/Berlin' for line 8 (same happens if I use US/Pacific).

Do I have to do anything else to 'install' the module?

PS: I assume that it is possible to use pytz in pythonista because I found this statement.
