Flask 2.0.0 - ImportError: cannot import name '_endpoint_from_view_func' from 'flask.helpers'

[jloehel]

The helper function is not longer available in Flask 2.0.0

flask-restful/flask-restful#913

[dendisuhubdy]

yes broke my pipeline

[j5awry]

Thanks for catching this quickly. I've told Github to run the tests. on the PR. I don't foresee any issues there. I'll get this merged into main, and then cut a release ASAP.

flask-restful ran into same problem and fixed that issue: flask-restful/flask-restful#914

[cedricbonhomme]

Hello. Thank you for this fix. I did something similar in my venv. Are you going to publish the fix soonish on pypi ?

[cedricbonhomme]

Seems it is published on pypi, nice @j5awry . But there is a dependency issue with Flask 2.0, probably due to this:
https://github.com/python-restx/flask-restx/blob/master/requirements/install.pip#L4

$ poetry install

  SolverProblemError

  Because flask-restx (0.4.0) depends on Flask (>=0.8,<2.0.0)
   and no versions of flask-restx match >0.4.0,<0.5.0, flask_restx (>=0.4.0,<0.5.0) requires Flask (>=0.8,<2.0.0).
  So, because statsservice depends on both Flask (^2.0.0) and flask_restx (^0.4.0), version solving failed.

@cedricbonhomme I think sometimes this happens if you are using the same venv. Try to clear all packages from this venv and rerun pip again

[cedricbonhomme]

I deleted it, even cleaned the cache of poetry. Actually in the archive here it is written ''Flask>=0.8, <2.0.0''. So it seems poetry is right.

[j5awry]

check your config.toml and pyproject.toml as well, or any place dependencies are being specified. statsservice (which i assume is your poetry proejct) is depending on Flask ^2.0.0 somewhere. So you should set in your dependencies explicitly to Flask < 2.0.0 or delete a pinned line somewhere. It's also possible that there's a pinned dependency file somewhere being generated by poetry for repeatability. you might need to grep around. < 2.0.0 would not require 2.0.0. It'd require anything less than. >= 2.0.0 would require 2.0.0

[cedricbonhomme]

In the pyproject.toml I have these lines:

Flask = "^2.0.0"
flask_restx = "^0.4.0"
...
...

To be sure I have deleted the lock file (poetry.lock). As well deleted the virtual env and cleaned the cache of poetry. I am not using a config.toml file.

What I do not understand it's this:
https://github.com/python-restx/flask-restx/blob/master/requirements/install.pip#L4
it seems it excludes verion 2.0.0 of Flask. Is this correct ?

I have the same problem as @cedricbonhomme. But directly with pip :)
