Error when running python setupConfig.py about ytmdl HOT 18 CLOSED

Do you have python 3.4+ ? pathlib is supposed to be in your python setup.
Please upgrade your python version to the latest one or at least one that is v3.4 or more.

Did you run setupConfig with python3?

That's a weird issue man.
Try sudo pip install pathlib

from ytmdl.

from ytmdl.

I really think this is probably because of two setups. Other users are not facing any issues. If possible can you try anywhere with just python 3 installed?

from ytmdl.

I cannot get anything to run either. Both the setupConfig.py and the ytmdl.py return this error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setupConfig.py", line 8, in <module>
    class DEFAULTS:

    CONFIG_PATH = os.path.join(Path.home(), '.config', 'ytmdl')

Its weird coz i am able to use it all right.
Can you post the pathlib version?
Just run the following command and post the output
sudo pip install pathlib
Also which linux distro are you using?

from ytmdl.

@mehalter Do you have a .config folder?

from ytmdl.

I do. That is a type error for join, not a problem with my folder. Also I have all the dependencies.

from ytmdl.

@mehalter Type following and show me the output

python

Then the following

from pathlib import Path
print(Path.home())

Please post the output

from ytmdl.

@mehalter @NaiCity Can you guys check the latest update and report?
I have made some major changes. Should work now.

from ytmdl.

So I have done the pip install and it installed great. If I run ytmdl -s without the config folder already created I get the error AttributeError: module 'os' has no attribute 'mkdirs'.

from ytmdl.

@mehalter Exactly. I'm getting this error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/ytmdl", line 168, in
main()
File "/usr/local/bin/ytmdl", line 60, in main
setupConfig.make_config()
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/ytmdl/setupConfig.py",n make_config
os.mkdirs(DEFAULTS.CONFIG_PATH)
AttributeError: module 'os' has no attribute 'mkdirs'

from ytmdl.

Sorry about that issue. I made a silly mistake. I have fixed it and it should be working all right now. Please try it.

@NaiCity Sorrry for such a late reply. Most issues are fixed now. Please try installing the latest version by
sudo pip install --no-cache-dir ytmdl --upgrade
If you have any version already installed then consider uninstalling it by the followingf command
sudo pip uninstall ytmdl
