pyauditor install broken in latest docker image

[QuantumDancer]

After #319 was merged into master, I wanted to try out the latest version of C/T.

I noticed that loading the auditor plugin fails. I could track this back back to a broken install of pyauditor in the docker container:

• With the latest docker image the pyauditor module is not populated with the classes we export

$ docker run -it --rm --entrypoint /bin/sh matterminers/cobald-tardis:latest
/srv # python
Python 3.10.13 (main, Oct 19 2023, 06:08:04) [GCC 12.2.1 20220924] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyauditor
>>> dir(pyauditor)
['__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__']

• With the latest tagged version it works (i.e. AuditorClientBuilder and other classes are visible)

$ docker run -it --rm --entrypoint /bin/sh matterminers/cobald-tardis:0.8.0
/srv # python
Python 3.10.13 (main, Oct 19 2023, 06:08:04) [GCC 12.2.1 20220924] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyauditor
>>> dir(pyauditor)
['AuditorClient', 'AuditorClientBlocking', 'AuditorClientBuilder', 'Component', 'Meta', 'Record', 'Score', '__all__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', 'pyauditor']

• However, installing the latest pyauditor version in a venv also works

$ python -m venv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install python-auditor
Successfully installed python-auditor-0.3.0
$ python
Python 3.11.5 (main, Sep  2 2023, 14:16:33) [GCC 13.2.1 20230801] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyauditor
>>> dir(pyauditor)
['AuditorClient', 'AuditorClientBlocking', 'AuditorClientBuilder', 'Component', 'Meta', 'Record', 'Score', '__all__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', 'pyauditor']

• I also checked with Python3.10 using the python:3.10 container (as this is the version used by the C/T container), and there it also works

Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks a lot for your report. I have rebuild the latest image based on the refs/heads/master and the behaviour is exactly the same as you describe.

docker run -it --rm --entrypoint /bin/sh matterminers/cobald-tardis:latest       ST 1   release-0.8.1
/srv # python
Python 3.10.13 (main, Oct 19 2023, 06:08:04) [GCC 12.2.1 20220924] on linux

>>> import pyauditor
>>> dir(pyauditor)
['__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__']

Honestly, I do not have an idea what is broken right now.

[giffels]

The problem occurs only if python-auditor is build from source. I have tested in a rockylinux:8 docker container.

[root@bc9de6cca711 /]# python3.11 -m pip install python-auditor==0.3.0 --force --no-binary python-auditor
DEPRECATION: --no-binary currently disables reading from the cache of locally built wheels. In the future --no-binary will not influence the wheel cache. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to use the --no-cache-dir option. You can use the flag --use-feature=no-binary-enable-wheel-cache to test the upcoming behaviour.

For some reason the cobald-tardis container builds python-auditor from source instead of installing the binary. So, I guess the problem is not in our container builds.

[QuantumDancer]

Ah, interesting, thanks for pointing this out! I will investigate why building from source does not work.

[QuantumDancer]

We could track the issue down to a new version of one of the build tools (maturin) which apparently is not working right now for our setup.

See ALU-Schumacher/AUDITOR#565 for more details.

I've created a bugfix release which seems to work:

And just as a side note: Pyauditor is build from source in the cobald-tardis container because the pyauditor wheel is build using manylinux, which links against glibc, but the cobald-tardis container is based on alpine linux, which does not contain glibc.
