Encountering `importlib_metadata.PackageNotFoundError` trying to run console script

[gretchenfrage]

# Background

I have a pipenv workspace which is structured like this:

|- Pipfile |- Pipfile.lock |- assetdb-SNAPSHOT/ |- setup.py |- assetdb/ |- __init__.py |- (other modules)

The Pipfile references the assetdb-SNAPSHOT directory by local path:

[[source]] name = "pypi" url = "https://pypi.org/simple" verify_ssl = true [packages] assetdb = {editable = true, path = 'assetdb-SNAPSHOT'} [dev-packages] [requires]

The assetdb-SNAPSHOT/setup.py file declares assetdb to be a console_scripts entrypoint:

from setuptools import setup, find_packages setup( packages=find_packages(), entry_points={'console_scripts': ['assetdb=assetdb.porcelain.cli:main']}, name='assetdb', version='0.0.1-SNAPSHOT', install_requires=['pyyaml==5.3.1', 'pytest==6.0.2', 'pytest-rng==1.0.0'], )

# Problem

However, when I attempt to run pipenv run assetdb, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/kahlo/.local/share/virtualenvs/pypackages-988kgfpK/bin/assetdb", line 33, in <module> sys.exit(load_entry_point('assetdb', 'console_scripts', 'assetdb')()) File "/Users/kahlo/.local/share/virtualenvs/pypackages-988kgfpK/bin/assetdb", line 22, in importlib_load_entry_point for entry_point in distribution(dist_name).entry_points File "/Users/kahlo/.local/share/virtualenvs/pypackages-988kgfpK/lib/python3.7/site-packages/importlib_metadata/__init__.py", line 940, in distribution return Distribution.from_name(distribution_name) File "/Users/kahlo/.local/share/virtualenvs/pypackages-988kgfpK/lib/python3.7/site-packages/importlib_metadata/__init__.py", line 534, in from_name raise PackageNotFoundError(name) importlib_metadata.PackageNotFoundError: No package metadata was found for assetdb

# Diagnostics

I am able to use pipenv to enter a python shell, import the main function, and run it, and it works:

Phoenixs-MacBook-Pro:pypackages kahlo$ pipenv run python Python 3.7.0 (v3.7.0:1bf9cc5093, Jun 26 2018, 23:26:24) [Clang 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import assetdb.porcelain.cli >>> assetdb.porcelain.cli.main() usage: [-h] [--cwd [CWD]] {init,status,upload,add,remove,sync-file-to-hash,sync-hash-to-file,stash,checkout} ...

Therefore, the problem lies somewhere in this configuration's ability to locate the entrypoint based on the command.

Help much appreciated
