Sikuli

Sikuli 2.0 is not finding images previously found by 1.1.3

Asked by hcuthbert on 2019-11-12

Sikuli 1.1.3 works like a champ when using the MasterPath folder to specify the folders which Sikuli can see and pull scripts to images from:

from sikuli import *

admPath = "C:\\Sikulix\\FMH_Regression\\TS_ADMIN\\" # Test Cases
if not admPath in sys.path: sys.path.append(admPath)

APMPath = "C:\\Sikulix\\FMH_Regression\\TS_APM\\" # Test Cases
if not APMPath in sys.path: sys.path.append(APMPath)

prtPath = "C:\\Sikulix\\FMH_Regression\\TS_PRT\\" # Test Cases
if not prtPath in sys.path: sys.path.append(prtPath)

path19 = "C:\\Sikulix\\FMH_Regression\\Images\\FMH"
addImagePath(path19)

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Path is used by the tests as an alias to MasterPath:

# Open the Master_Path.sikuli file and create the new entires to support the folder creation
from sikuli import *

masterPath = "C:\\Sikulix\\FMH_Regression\\"
if not masterPath in sys.path: sys.path.append(masterPath)

import Master_Path

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tests: uses Import Paths

#====================================================================
from sikuli import *
import Paths
import FUNC_Log as Log
import NotificationsLib as Noti
import PORTAL_FunctionLib as Port

In Sikuli 2.0, how do I get Sikuli to recognize the images within the folder path:

Folder structure is below -- images are stored in subfolders within the Images folder

 C:\SikuliX\FMH_Regression\Images

When opening 2.0, Sikuli throws the following errors -- images are found within the image directories

Feb 28 2020, Good Morning Rainman, you can close this issue with my path issue. Version 2.0.3 has somewhat resolved the issue. I moved all images to the specific function library vs having individual image libraries. I am continuing to verify the differences between 1.1.3 and 2....

If I understand right:
The images are found at runtime of the script, but not shown in the IDE as thumbnails.

Please confirm.

Rainman, thanks for the quick response,

Sikuli 2.0 does not recognize the path to get the images, doesn't like the function calls, or doesn't like the masterpath references. I have tried to manipulate the folder struction and MasterPath to see if Sikuli will pick up the images. Doesn't happen. As I have stated, 1.1.3 works great.

more info:
Tests are function driven to support reuse of images. Functions are stored in separate scripts with reference calls to the images(etc.. 1234.png) . Images are stored within their own directories.

Rainman, I have been doing different scenarios to try an narrow the problem. I will keep you posted. There are some differences already noted from the 1.1.3 vs 2.0 for ex:
Sikuli is not verifying path names to be exact matches (case sensitive) vs 1.1.3
ex: 2.0 expects: C:\SikuliX\FMH_Regression\Logs
      1.1.3 allowed: C:\SikuliX\FMH_regression\logs

Sikuli is has changed the acceptance of specific calls:
ex: 1.1.3 allowed: openApp('explorer "C:\SikuliX\FMH_Regression\Logs"') to open File Explorer
        2.0 must now use: dir = os.path.join('C:\SikuliX\FMH_Regression\Logs')
                                             os.popen('start explorer "%s" ' % dir)

thanks.

I will have a look and in case create bugs.

Rainman,

Hope you are having a happy Friday. More information for you. It appears Sikuli 2.0 does find the file directories containing the images based on the Master Path.

The problem I am facing is the calls to open the various applications (IE, Firefox, Chrome, etc....). I have found that the Win calls work (click start menu, search for Firefox, click Enter Key.)). Program calls are a little on the messy side at the moment (fickle as you say).

I will continue to debug. I did get a workflow to startup and enter data from the workbooks -- that's a great thing. I will still play around with 2.0. But I will stay with 1.1.3 for now.

Thanks again.
