- Improve the
ModuleNotFound
error messages, and make them more actionable (e.g. directly suggest to install a particular set of extra deps, likedatasets
)
Original text
This solved it for me when I hit this error when working through the code in the Usage page.
A couple of notes (feel free to ignore 😄) -- I found the
ModuleNotFound
message a bit hard to interpret as it didn't say what module, so I wasn't sure how to proceed. Also, the installation page says that thedatasets
optional dependency is for working with the datasets at Figshare. Hence, when I got the error on the Usage page when trying to do stuff with synthetic data, I didn't consider the correct solution.
Anyway, minor wrinkles -- congrats on the cool package I'm having fun with it so far!
