sys.path is not set to include the cwd

[ri0t]

Thanks for fixing the string conversion bug. Now i bumped into another one that is probably 3.x specific.
EDIT: Nope, that also happens on 2.7!

I could build the binary now, but it couldn't import the render module:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'render'

So, i searched a bit and i think it is related to the CWD not being in the current sys.path:
Stackoverflow about sys.path with pyimport

I tried adding it but failed because the _get_PyString_fromString function returns a bytes.
So i did it via

PyRun_SimpleString("sys.path.append('/home/riot/src/FantasyMapGenerator/build')");

and it was able to import ther render module.

Afterwards i ran into two problems:

• 3.5 - "Error: function not in module dict"
• 3.6 - couldn't import cairo, probably a cairo bug: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cairo._cairo'

I'd rather not open tickets for those, as i don't know whats going on with 3.5 and i think the 3.6-one is not related to this project. Help would be appreciated ;)

Hello ri0t,

Thank you very much for testing the program and letting me know what is going wrong. I am sorry you are running into these errors!

I have only been able to test the program using Python 2.7 and Python 3.2. I can't seem to get the embedded Python libraries to work correctly for 3.5 or 3.6 on my machine.

I have updated the repository to add the directory containing the Python rendering code to sys.path.

I have also updated _get_PyString_fromString to use PyUnicode_FromString method instead of PyBytes_FromString. I think this would be more correct, and maybe it will fix the "function not in module dict" error.

I am not sure what is causing the "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cairo._cairo'" error for you. I have found that if I use a version of cairo that is build for a different of Python, I will get the same error. This happened when I used a cairo build for Python 2.7 in Python 3.2.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if the changes end up fixing any of these issues.

Best Regards,
Ryan
